| Reverse description | Stylized horse or horse-derived motif in the Celtic La Tène tradition, rendered in a highly schematic and abstract manner characteristic of Vindelician Büschelquinar coinage. Ancillary symbols or pellets may accompany the main device in the field, though heavy corrosion and patination on this specimen obscure precise detail. The die work reflects the progressive abstraction away from the Hellenistic prototype toward a purely Celtic artistic idiom. The flan edges are irregular, typical of hand-struck Celtic small silver coinage of this period. No legend is present. |
