| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylised and abstracted rendering of the head of Apollo facing right, derived from earlier Macedonian prototypes. The design is deconstructed into geometric and curvilinear elements, including pellet-tipped crescents representing the wreath, a flowing cloak indicated by curved lines, and angular wing-like motifs positioned above. A prominent spike composed of a straight line terminating in a pellet is visible within the field. The overall treatment is characteristic of Late Iron Age Celtic coinage, in which figural imagery has been transformed into near-abstract decorative patterning. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised horse depicted in motion to the right, rendered in the characteristic abstract manner of the Catuvellauni coinage of this series. The horse features a notably oversized, elongated ear, a hallmark design element of the Whaddon Chase type. Pellet-in-ring ornaments appear both above and below the horse, serving as decorative field markers. Sunflower or rayed disc motifs are placed above and below the horse, adding further symmetrical decoration to the composition. The overall reverse design reflects the confident, highly formalised artistic vocabulary of Late Iron Age Celtic die engravers. |
