| Descrizione del dritto |
Stylized male head facing right, rendered in the La Tène Celtic artistic tradition with schematic facial features including a prominent eye rendered as a pellet, and flowing hair depicted as parallel striations and lobe-like projections framing the face. The neck is adorned with a torc, a characteristic Celtic ornamental element. The legend PIXTILOS appears in the right field in Latin characters, identifying the issuing authority or a tribal magistrate. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hand-struck Celtic bronze coinage of the period. |

| Descrizione del rovescio |
A large eagle or bird of prey rendered in schematic Celtic style, facing left with wings spread and displayed, occupying the majority of the reverse field. The bird's plumage is indicated by incised parallel lines along the wings and body. Below the bird, a stylized architectural element suggestive of a temple or sacred enclosure is depicted, flanked by further Celtic decorative motifs including pellets and a sinuous serpentine line along the lower exergual area. The overall composition reflects the Gallo-Belgic artistic tradition with strong abstract tendencies. |
