| Reverse description | A stylised horse facing right, rendered in the abstracted Celtic artistic tradition characteristic of late Iron Age Cantian coinage. The horse's body is boldly modelled with an arched neck and segmented limbs, with a prominent eye rendered as a pellet within a ring. Scattered ring-and-pellet ornaments and annulet devices fill the field around the animal, a decorative convention common to Cantian silver units of this period. A beaded or cable border encircles the design. The abbreviated legend DVBNO appears in the field, referencing the issuing authority Dubnovellaunos. |
