| Reverse description | Stylised horse depicted in fragmented, abstracted Celtic manner occupying the central field, its body rendered through a series of curvilinear and comma-shaped relief motifs characteristic of insular Iron Age coinage. A prominent spoke-wheeled solar symbol or wheel motif appears in the lower field, a common apotropaic device on British Celtic coinage. Additional abstract ornamental elements, including pellets and crescent forms, fill the surrounding field. The flan is of irregular planchet shape with no inscription or legend. |
