| Beschrijving voorzijde | A sinuous, double-headed serpentine creature rendered in the characteristic La Tène Celtic artistic tradition, its body forming a reversed S-curve and occupying the central field. The creature displays rounded terminal heads at each extremity of its serpentine form, with limb-like projections visible along the body. Flanking the central motif on each side is a spoked wheel with four spokes, a symbol commonly associated with solar iconography in Celtic numismatic art. The field is further animated by a series of curved pellet-ended lines and crescent forms arranged around the periphery, imparting a dynamic, swirling composition typical of Belgic coinage of this period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised horse is depicted in left-facing profile, rendered in the abstracted, disjointed manner characteristic of Late Iron Age British coinage, with the body delineated by a prominent transverse belt or bar across its midsection. The limbs and neck are suggested by elongated terminal pellet forms rather than naturalistic anatomy. Occupying the lower field beneath the horse is a prominent ringed spiral or multi-armed swirling roundel, a motif frequently encountered on Atrebatic and Belgic silver units. Additional subsidiary ornaments including pellets, crescents, and curved lines fill the surrounding field, consistent with the decorative vocabulary of the ABC 893 Lambourn Dragon type. |
