| Obverse description | Helmeted bust of Roma facing right, wearing a crested Corinthian-style helmet, rendered in the Celtic interpretive style of Roman coin iconography. The legend DVTEVTI appears in the field, likely a local Eraviscian name or title inscribed in Latin characters. The portrait displays the characteristic bold, somewhat stylized modelling typical of Celtic imitative coinage, with strong facial features and flowing hair visible beneath the helmet. The flan is irregular, consistent with hand-struck provincial Celtic production. |

| Reverse description | Central globe flanked by a rudder to the right and a thunderbolt to the left, the three symbols arranged in a triangular composition that closely imitates Roman Republican denarius reverse types. The legend RAVIZ appears below the central globe in bold Latin letters, serving as an abbreviation for the Eravisci tribal name. The devices are rendered in a vigorous Celtic style, with the thunderbolt displaying forked prongs and the rudder clearly delineated. The overall design reflects the Eraviscian practice of adapting Roman monetary iconography to assert local identity. |
