Reverse description A griffin depicted in left-facing profile, rendered in the dynamic, abstracted style typical of Late Iron Age Celtic coinage. The creature's body is shown with naturalistic musculature, its wings suggested by flowing curved lines rising from the back. A horizontal ground line divides the field, below which a pellet triad is placed beneath the figure. The design fills the flan with characteristic Celtic artistic energy, with details in the field rendered as pellets and curved linear elements.
