| Reverse description | A highly stylised horse prances rightward, its body rendered in vigorous curvilinear Celtic convention with disjointed limbs indicated by lentoid and pellet forms. The mane is depicted as a distinctive ladder pattern — a defining diagnostic feature of this type — formed by a series of parallel transverse bars between two longitudinal lines. A spoked wheel symbol occupies the lower field beneath the horse, representing a solar or solar-chariot motif common in Iron Age British coinage. A spiral sun symbol is positioned in the field before the horse, accompanied by scattered pellets and a crescent form in the upper field. A beaded border runs along the lower flan edge. |
