| Reverse description | A horse or animal figure facing right, rendered in the highly abstracted Celtic style, occupying the central field of the flan. The body of the animal is defined by curved relief lines, with the field densely populated by scattered pellets and ring-and-dot ornaments arranged in the characteristic Cantian decorative idiom. Additional curvilinear motifs fill the remaining field, consistent with the artistic conventions of the Cantii silver unit series. No inscription or legend is present. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with the hammered production technique. |
