| Obverse description | Stylized laurel wreath rendered in a highly abstracted Celtic manner, the individual leaves depicted as bold, elongated relief lobes radiating from a central point and filling the entire field. The design derives from the Hellenistic laureate prototype but is interpreted in the characteristic Celtic geometric reduction style, with no legend or inscription present. |
