Beschrijving voorzijde Highly stylised and abstract Celtic design derived from a classical laureate head, rendered in the characteristic late Iron Age British artistic idiom. The field is filled with a dynamic arrangement of pellets, curved lines, and elongated lentoid pellets distributed across the surface, representing the highly abstracted remnants of a wreath and facial features. A prominent spiral motif occupies the right portion of the field, accompanied by scattered small pellets throughout. The entire composition reflects the progressive abstraction of the Macedonian gold stater prototype, executed with characteristic La Tène curvilinear artistry.

Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised horse prancing to the right, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner typical of Corieltauvian coinage, its body decomposed into flowing curvilinear elements and bold crescentic forms. Above the horse's back appears a rayed solar symbol or sun motif with radiating lines, a defining characteristic of this type. Scattered pellets and curved subsidiary ornaments fill the field around the horse, while a spiral device appears beneath the animal's neck on certain varieties. The overall composition descends from the reverse of the gold stater of Philip II of Macedon, though thoroughly transformed through generations of Celtic reinterpretation.
