| Obverse description | Obverse depicting a highly stylised, abstracted head facing right in the Celtic artistic tradition, rendered with deeply cut, flowing lines. A prominent sinuous S-curve or wave motif dominates the lower field, likely a schematic rendering of hair or drapery. To the upper right, a rectangular bar element and a pellet-in-ring device are visible in the field. The inscription SOL appears in the lower exergual area in Latin characters, associating the type with the Solidus series. The design reflects the characteristic late Iron Age British Celtic coinage style, with naturalistic forms dissolved into bold, abstract components. |
