| Reverse description | As a bracteate, the reverse presents the incuse mirror image of the obverse design, showing the negative impression of the wheel motif and surrounding pellet border pressed through the thin flan during striking. Three stylized star or fleuron forms are visible in the quadrants as sunken recesses corresponding to the raised obverse devices. The surface is flat and shows the characteristic concave relief of bracteate technique. No inscription or additional decorative elements are present on the reverse. |
