| Obverse description | Diademed head facing left, rendered in the schematized Celtic artistic tradition with boldly modeled facial features. A prominent wreath or diadem adorns the hair, depicted as a series of stylized pellets and incised lines. The legend ATPILI F appears to the left of the effigy in the field, referencing the issuing magistrate. The overall design reflects the late Gaulish coinage style derived from Hellenistic prototypes, with the portrait reduced to its most essential plastic forms. |
