Obverse description Stylized head facing left rendered in the schematic Celtic idiom, with bold relief lines depicting hair as a series of parallel striations sweeping back from the brow. A prominent spiral or pellet motif occupies the field before the face, likely representing the eye. The facial features are reduced to abstract curvilinear forms characteristic of Gaulish potin coinage. No legend or inscription is present. The surface retains the typical rough texture of a cast flan.

Reverse description A boar advancing to the right, rendered in the bold, stylized manner typical of Leuci tribal coinage, with a pronounced arched back and a dorsal crest depicted as a row of short vertical lines or bristles. The legs are summarily indicated by curved relief lines, and a curling tail is visible to the left. Beneath the animal, an omega-shaped or torque-like motif occupies the lower field, a characteristic element of this die class. No legend is present; the design fills the irregularly shaped cast flan.
