| Reverse description | Stylized anthropomorphic horse galloping left, its body rendered with exaggerated musculature and schematized limbs terminating in pellet-and-comma ornaments typical of Armorican and Maine Gaulish coinage. Above the horse, a winged figure or disjointed human bust with flowing hair is depicted, a hallmark motif of Aulerci Cenomani staters. Beneath the horse, a ground line composed of hatched or ladder-pattern elements is visible, along with scattered pellets and curvilinear ornaments filling the field. The overall composition reflects the characteristic Gaulish abstraction of the chariot-and-driver type ultimately derived from Macedonian gold staters of Philip II. No legible inscription is present on the reverse. |
