| Obverse description | Male head facing right, rendered in a stylized Celtic manner derived from Hellenistic prototypes, with flowing hair depicted as a series of curved, flame-like locks radiating from the crown. The facial features are boldly modelled, with a prominent eye rendered in relief and a strong jawline. The flan is irregular with a serrated or pellet border visible along portions of the rim. The overall artistic treatment reflects the La Tène decorative tradition, combining naturalistic inspiration with abstract Celtic interpretation. |
