Obverse description A stylised animal, likely a boar or horse, rendered in the abstracted La Tène Celtic artistic tradition, occupies the central field. The creature is depicted in profile moving to the right, its body formed by bold relief lines. Above the figure, a diagonal row of pellets arcs across the field, flanked on either side by a crescentic symbol. Below the animal, vertical lines suggest ground or an exergual division. The flan is irregular and slightly concave, consistent with hand-struck Celtic coinage of the period. No inscription or legend is present.
