| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylized Celtic effigy facing left, rendered in a characteristic La Tène cubist idiom, with the hair depicted as a series of raised ovoid pellet-form locks arranged around the skull. Two dolphins are positioned in the field before the face, a decorative motif common to the coinage of the Volcæ Tectosages. The overall treatment of the head reflects the abstract, geometric artistic tradition of southern Gaulish silver coinage of the late second to early first century BC. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A central cross divides the reverse field into four quadrants, each quadrant adorned at its angle with a lunula or crescent-shaped ornament. The first and second angles contain a sling bullet (globular projectile), the third angle features an axe, and the fourth displays an elliptical pendant or ring-form decoration. This highly schematic geometric composition is characteristic of the later Volcæ Tectosages drachm series and reflects the progressive abstraction of earlier Greek-derived reverse designs. |
