Beschrijving voorzijde Stylised Celtic head facing right, rendered in crude but expressive abstract style characteristic of Late Iron Age Cantian coinage. The face is dominated by a prominent, exaggerated nose, with six coils of corded hair radiating from the crown, each terminating in a distinctive knobbed curl. A torc motif is depicted in the field before the neck, a recurrent symbol of status and identity in Celtic art. The design is executed in low relief on an irregular flan with typical hammered surface texture.

Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised horse progressing to the right, rendered in the schematic, abstracted manner typical of Cantian Celtic coinage. The mane is depicted as a series of fine linear strokes, emphasising movement and decorative rhythm. A spoked wheel motif is placed above the horse in the upper field, a symbol frequently encountered on coins of the Cantii and interpreted as a solar or cultic emblem. The composition fills the irregular flan with characteristic Iron Age artistic economy, leaving minimal open field.
