Obverse description Male head facing right, rendered in the characteristic Celtic abstract style, with flowing curly hair depicted in the left field. The head is framed by a laurel wreath ascending between two rows of pellets, creating a decorative border around the central effigy. The stylized features reflect the late La Tène artistic tradition typical of Boian coinage.

Reverse description Stylized Celtic horse leaping to the left, executed in the abstracted La Tène artistic manner. A bird or wing motif is depicted on the horse's back, serving as a distinctive type identifier. A single pellet appears beneath the tail. The design is characteristic of Boian coinage derived from earlier Macedonian prototypes, with highly schematized rendering of anatomical forms.
