| Obverse description | Stylized head of a deity or demonic effigy facing left, rendered in a highly abstracted La Tène artistic style. A prominent drop-shaped globule is depicted within the open mouth, a characteristic feature of this Carnutes type. The facial features are summarily modeled in low relief, with bulging eyes and exaggerated contours typical of Gaulish potin coinage. The flan is irregularly rounded with a dark patinated surface consistent with the cast potin alloy. No legend or inscription appears in the field. |
