| Reverse description | A stylised Celtic horse prancing to the right, rendered in the abstracted La Tène manner characteristic of Iceni silver coinage. Above the horse, a large rayed solar wheel or sun-symbol with a central pellet is prominently placed in the upper field, accompanied by a smaller ringed pellet to the right. A central annulet appears between the horse's body and the upper devices. Below the horse, a ground line is present, beneath which a further ringed pellet or annulet is visible. The composition is enclosed within an irregular flan with no inscription, the field populated by scattered pellets and abstract Celtic ornamental motifs. |
