| Obverse description | A triple-line wreath occupies the obverse field, with the outer two lines formed of beaded pellets framing a plain central band. At the centre of the wreath a four-petalled flower motif is rendered in relief, serving as the principal decorative focus of the design. The composition is characteristic of Late Iron Age Celtic die-cutting in southeastern Britain, displaying the stylised vegetal ornament associated with the Cantian coinage tradition. |
