Beschrijving voorzijde A stylised boar advancing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in the characteristic Celtic abstract idiom with exaggerated long dorsal bristles terminating in a row of pellets and a prominent, upswept ear. A distinctive butterfly motif is depicted above the boar's back, a hallmark device of this Iceni sub-type. Two pelletal solar symbols, representing stylised suns composed of radiating pellets, appear flanking the boar, one on each side of the field. The overall composition is bold and schematic, reflecting the highly stylised artistic conventions of Late Iron Age British coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised horse advances to the right in a schematic Celtic artistic style typical of Iceni silver coinage. The horse's tail is rendered as a plain line accompanied by an adjoining line composed of a series of pellets, a distinctive feature of this type. A pelletal solar symbol, formed of a central boss surrounded by radiating pellets, is positioned above the horse in the upper field. A single pellet boss appears below the horse in the lower field. The composition is spare and linear, consistent with the abstract geometric conventions of Late Iron Age British numismatic art.
