| Obverse description | At centre, two back-to-back linear crescents, each filled with radiating eyelash lines and surmounted by a projecting wreath motif. A pellet-in-ring symbol is positioned within each crescent, the pair arranged to form a cruciform composition. The field corners are decorated with arc and V-shaped ornamental devices, characteristic of late Iron Age Celtic decorative repertoire. |

| Reverse description | A stylised horse advances to the right, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner with a solid Y-shaped head and a double rein line extending from chest to muzzle. Short dashes indicate the mane along the neck. Above the horse, a wing motif and a ring ornament are present in the field. Below, a four-spoked wheel with pellets placed between each spoke serves as a ground element, a motif frequently encountered on British Iron Age and related coinage. |
