| Obverse description | Two animals facing one another in confronted arrangement, identified as goats, with an annulet positioned centrally between their heads. The design is enclosed within a peripheral beaded border, with additional beading framing the composition. The style is characteristic of late Iron Age Gaulish cotin coinage, rendered in a schematic and abstract manner typical of cast production. |

| Reverse description | A wolf and a wild boar depicted in confronted stance, facing one another across a central globule or annulet that occupies the field between them. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner circle and an outer peripheral beaded border. The rendering is bold and schematic, consistent with the cast potin technique employed by Belgic Gaulish tribes during the late La Tène period. |
