| Reverse description | Highly stylised Celtic horse prancing to the right, rendered in the abstract La Tène artistic tradition. The horse's body is depicted with sinuous, flowing lines, its mane dissolving into a series of curving tendrils and pellets. The field is populated with an array of decorative pellets, crescents, and lenticular ornaments arranged around the figure. Below the horse, a cluster of pellets and a crescent serve as ground elements. The overall composition exemplifies the progressive abstraction of the Gallo-Belgic stater tradition derived from the Philip II of Macedon gold stater prototype. |
