| Obverse description | Stylised and highly abstracted head derived from a classical prototype, rendered in the distinctive Late Iron Age Celtic artistic tradition. The facial features are dissolved into a series of flowing curvilinear lines, pellets, and annular motifs distributed across the field. Raised bosses and sinuous relief elements suggest the hair and facial structure, typical of Corieltauvian die-cutting practice. The overall composition is characteristic of a contemporary counterfeit, exhibiting cruder die-work and less assured engraving than official tribal issues. No legend is present on this face. |
