Obverse description Stylised head of a warrior or deity facing right, wearing a crested helmet with exaggerated, schematic rendering typical of Gallo-Belgic potin coinage. The facial features are boldly rendered in the Celtic artistic tradition, with a pronounced nose and chin. The inscription TOC appears in the right field, composed of individual letter elements arranged around the portrait. The surface bears the characteristic dull grey-green patina of cast potin alloy.
