Obverse description Highly stylised Celtic wreath design executed in the La Tène artistic tradition, composed of sinuous, intertwining leaf and tendril motifs rendered in relief. Within the abstract foliage, a concealed anthropomorphic face is embedded, a characteristic feature of the Atrebatic quarter stater series, discernible through carefully arranged curvilinear elements suggesting eyes and facial contours. The field is filled with flowing scroll-work and pellet ornaments, with no inscription or legend present. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with the hammered production technique of late Iron Age British coinage.
