| Reverse description | A winged genius or spirit depicted in schematic Celtic style, rendered with characteristic abstraction. The figure is shown above a quadruped animal facing right, identified variously as a deer, horse, or wolf, whose body is reduced to stylized curved lines. The composition is typical of Aeduan potin coinage of the late La Tene period, with the imagery derived from Hellenistic prototypes but thoroughly transformed into the local Celtic artistic idiom. The flan edges are irregular, consistent with cast manufacture. |
