Reverse description Disjointed Celtic horse prancing left, its rectangular body constructed from two opposing curved segments in characteristic British Iron Age style. Three or four parallel lines appear behind the legs, with a field densely populated by pellets above the horse. An elongated oval pellet is positioned directly above, occasionally rendered with lateral arms. A four-armed spiral occupies the area in front of the horse. Below the neck appears either a small irregular motif, a crescent, or a pronged squiggle depending on the variety. A coffee-bean shaped pellet is placed behind the horse with no attached lines. Below the horse, a four-pronged pellet crab motif is present, with arms of variable length sometimes extending above and below the central pellet. The exergue is defined by a horizontal line beneath which a zigzag pattern interspersed with pellets appears.
