Potin with crescents

Descrizione del dritto	Stylized helmeted head of a warrior facing left, rendered in a schematic Celtic artistic style characteristic of Gaulish potin coinage. The helmet is indicated by a raised ridge or crest above the skull. The eye is rendered as a hollow depression, a distinctive feature of this Turonian type. The facial features are highly abstracted, with the cheek and jaw suggested by broad, rounded relief forms. The field is plain and uninscribed.

Descrizione del rovescio	Highly schematized and degraded representation of a quadruped in motion, oriented to the right, occupying the central field. The animal's body is rendered in a minimal, almost abstract manner typical of late Gaulish potin issues, with only vestigial limbs and torso discernible. A crescent or arc motif appears in the upper field, consistent with the type designation. The entire design exhibits the characteristic flat, worn relief of cast potin coinage. The field is plain and uninscribed.
