| Obverse description | Facing head rendered in a schematic Celtic style, displaying stylized features characteristic of Late Iron Age British coinage. The head is depicted frontally with a pronounced brow, summary facial features, and what appears to be a branch or plant motif rising above the crown of the head, possibly representing a wreath or vegetal ornament. A circular annulet device is visible to the left of the head in the field. The overall execution is typical of the provincial Celtic artistic tradition associated with Tasciovanos-period coinage, with bold but abstracted relief. |
