Beschrijving voorzijde Central field dominated by a large, bold Y-shaped symbol rendered in high relief, characteristic of the cast potin coinage attributed to the Paris basin tribes of the late Gaulish period. The Y motif, whose precise significance remains debated among scholars, is flanked on either side by schematic curvilinear forms that may represent stylized human or zoomorphic elements. The flan is irregular in outline, with a granular, patinated surface typical of cast potin production. No legible inscription or legend is present. The overall style is abstract and strongly Celtic in artistic tradition.

Beschrijving keerzijde Reverse depicts a highly stylized zoomorphic figure, most likely a lion or boar, rendered in the schematic, abstract manner typical of late La Tène Celtic coinage from the Paris region. The creature is shown in a crouching or rearing posture, its body composed of bold, flowing lines with exaggerated musculature and a prominently rendered head with curvilinear mane or crest. The field is plain with no surrounding legend or inscription. The cast surface exhibits characteristic potin texture with areas of flat wear and natural patination. The design closely corresponds to the type catalogued under DT 692.
