Obverse description Highly stylised and abstracted head derived from the classical Apollo prototype, rendered in the debased Celtic tradition characteristic of late Durotrigan coinage. The facial features are reduced to schematic linear elements distributed across the field, with the hair rendered as a series of diagonal striated lines radiating from the crown. The overall design shows the advanced stage of artistic debasement typical of this series, with individual elements barely recognisable from the original Macedonian stater prototype. No legend or inscription present. The surface retains a green patina consistent with prolonged burial.
