| Obverse description | Stylised Celtic head facing right, rendered in the abstract curvilinear tradition characteristic of Late Iron Age British coinage. The neck is notably elongated and delineated by a beaded outline, a defining typological feature of this issue. Facial elements are schematically rendered with pellet and arc motifs. A spoked wheel device is positioned before the head in the left field. The flan is irregular and the die work reflects the hand-struck hammered technique typical of pre-Roman Celtic silver coinage. |
