Obverse description Highly schematized Celtic effigy of a head facing right, rendered in the so-called 'Indian' style characteristic of Senonian coinage. The hair is swept back in a continuous flowing line merging with the neck, and a prominent globulated eye dominates the facial field. A curved semicircular pellet decorates the cheek area, reflecting the abstract La Tène artistic tradition. The facial features are reduced to essential geometric elements, with the overall composition displaying the fluid, curvilinear style typical of late Gaulish cast potin coinage.
