Obverse description Highly stylised Celtic design depicting two schematic human figures rendered in abstracted form within a boat-like motif, executed in the characteristic curvilinear tradition of Late Iron Age British coinage. The composition is arranged across the flan with the figures reduced to geometric and linear elements, reflecting the Icenian artistic convention of abstract derivation from earlier Gallo-Belgic prototypes. The field is plain, devoid of inscription or legend, consistent with pre-Roman Icenian coinage. The design is confined within the irregular, naturally flan-shaped border typical of hammered Celtic quarter staters.
