| Obverse description | Highly stylized schematic head facing right, rendered in the La Tène Celtic artistic tradition. The hair is depicted as a compact rounded mass above the crown of the head. Two S-shaped pellets or spiral elements appear joined before the face, and a crescent-form motif serves as the ear behind the neck. The design is framed by a peripheral bead border. |

| Reverse description | Central field features a large ringlet with a pointed or pellet center, characteristic of Gaulish potin coinage. To the upper right, a schematic boar symbol is depicted in outline form. Below, a pointed torc motif surmounted by five globules arranged in a row occupies the lower field. A second ringlet appears in the field behind the boar, all elements rendered in the simplified, abstract style typical of late Gaulish cast potin. |
