Reverse description A biga (two-horse chariot) driven to the left, rendered in the schematic Celtic tradition with the horses depicted in energetic, stylized form. Below the horses, the royal legend CVNOBELINI appears in Latin characters. A prominent four-spoked wheel is shown with pellets placed between the spokes, serving as a symbolic and decorative device. A large leaf motif occupies the upper field above the chariot group, a distinguishing feature of this type. The composition combines Gallo-Belgic iconographic heritage with the more structured, legend-inclusive style of Cunobelin's mature issues.
