Obverse description Central horizontal tablet or band, bordered above and below by plain lines, bearing the partial legend DVMNO(C) in bold, deeply cut Latin characters. The field above and below the tablet is filled with a stylised pellet-and-lobe wreath motif rendered in the distinctive Celtic decorative tradition. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, characteristic of hammered Celtic coinage of the Corieltauvi tribe.

Reverse description A stylised horse prancing to the right, rendered in the abstract Celtic artistic manner, with doubled upper front legs — a diagnostic feature of this type. A pellet is placed below the neck and another below the tail. The legend TIGIR appears above the horse in Latin characters. A pellet triad is positioned below the horse in the lower field, serving as a decorative or symbolic element.
