| Reverse description | A lion prowling to the right, rendered in vigorous Celtic stylisation with a pronounced maned head depicted frontally and the body in profile, the tail curling upward over the haunches. A spear or linear ground-line appears beneath the animal. The abbreviated Greek legend ΜΑΣΣΑ is inscribed in the upper field above the lion, referencing the city of Massalia (modern Marseille), whose coinage served as the prototype for this Insubrian imitation. |
