| Obverse description | Highly abstract and stylised Celtic design dominated by a central motif of three horizontal curved lines or pellet-tipped bars arranged in a roughly parallel formation, reminiscent of a debased face or pattern element. Surrounding the central device are a series of annulets and pellets disposed across the irregular flan, with additional curved linear elements in the upper and lower fields. The overall composition is characteristic of the late Icenian abstract style, showing significant departure from any figurative prototype. The surfaces are worn and the flan is of typical small hammered fabric. |
