| Obverse description | A horse prancing to the right with head turned back, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition characteristic of late Iron Age British coinage. A pentagram appears in the lower field beneath the horse, serving as the principal identifying device of this type. The abbreviated legend CVN, denoting the issuing authority Cunobelin, is inscribed in the field before the horse. The flan is irregular and the surfaces heavily patinated, typical of cast bronze units of this period. |
