| Obverse description | Standing figure of Hercules depicted facing, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition characteristic of late Iron Age British coinage. The figure is shown with arms slightly extended, the body formed by a series of pellets and linear strokes conveying musculature in an abstracted manner. The field is uncluttered, and the design is enclosed within a beaded border. The abbreviated legend CV to the left and NO to the right of the figure identifies the issuing king Cunobelin, divided across the field in typical Catuvellaunian fashion. |
