Reverse description Disjointed Celtic horse depicted in right-facing profile, rendered with a characteristically oversized and prominent ear, a hallmark of the Whaddon Chase type. A stylised wing or branch motif appears above the horse, accompanied by a row of pellets enclosed between two parallel horizontal lines. Below the horse's body, a distinctive beaded ring or sunflower motif — the defining feature of this subtype — is prominently placed in the field. Elliptical forms, each enclosing a row of pellets, are positioned in front of and behind the horse. An X symbol appears behind the horse in the reverse field.
