Beschrijving voorzijde Stylised abstract head facing right in the Celtic artistic tradition, rendered with a distinctive crescent-form motif representing the lunar or 'moon' head. The lips are depicted as a stalk form, with a prominent boss or pellet on the chin, and the hair is composed of pelleted crescents arranged in a decorative, non-naturalistic manner characteristic of Late Iron Age Dobunnic coinage. The overall composition reflects the highly schematised figural style of British Celtic die-engravers, in which representational forms are dissolved into geometric and curvilinear elements.

Beschrijving keerzijde A triple-tailed annulate horse depicted in motion to the left, rendered in the characteristic stylised idiom of Dobunnic coinage, with the body resolved into a series of pellets and curved lines. A flower or sun-wheel motif appears beneath the horse, while a stylised bird's head — the defining feature of the Cotswold Eagle type — is positioned above the horse's back. The composition fills the flan with the dense, curvilinear decorative vocabulary typical of the British Celtic workshop tradition, with subsidiary annulets and pellets animating the field.
