| Obverse description | Stylized head facing left, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition with bold, simplified facial features. The hair is depicted in a structured, ridged arrangement typical of late Gaulish coinage. The portrait is set within a beaded border, occupying the central field. The treatment of the eye and jaw reflects the abstract naturalism characteristic of Carnutes tribal coinage of the late La Tène period. The legend PIXTILO appears in the field, referencing a local magistrate or issuing authority. |
