Beschrijving voorzijde Stylised Celtic head facing left, rendered in the characteristic late Iron Age British manner with bold, curvilinear features. The hair is depicted as a series of prominent dolphin-shaped curls arranged around the cranium, a distinctive artistic convention of the Trinovantian coinage tradition. The facial features include strongly modelled lips formed by plant-stalk motifs, with pellet and crescent ornaments filling the field around the bust. The overall design reflects the abstract, decorative transformation of the classical laureate head prototype common to British Celtic coinage of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised horse advances to the right, its body rendered in the abstracted, disjointed manner characteristic of British Celtic coinage derived from Macedonian stater prototypes. Above the horse appears a prominent floral or solar rosette motif with radiating petals, interpreted as a decorative sun symbol. Pellets and annulets are scattered throughout the field, serving as decorative fill elements typical of Trinovantian die engravers. The legs and tail of the horse are rendered as sinuous curved lines, and additional plant or floral ornaments appear beneath the animal. No inscription or legend is present on this uninscribed issue.
