| Obverse description | Central field bears the abbreviated legend COF (Commii Filius, meaning Son of Commius) within a beaded inner circle. The inscription is enclosed by a decorative wreath of stylised leaves rendered in the Celtic artistic tradition, with an outer beaded border framing the entire design. The flan is irregular in shape, characteristic of hand-struck Celtic coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | A winged figure of Victory strides to the right, holding a wreath aloft in the raised right hand, with large stylised wings displayed behind. To the left of the figure appears the letter T, and to the right the letters IN and N flank a serpentine symbol and a rectangular altar or base in the lower right field. The abbreviated legend TIN, referencing the issuing king Tincomarus, is distributed around the figure. A beaded border encircles the entire design, consistent with Celtic silversmithing of the late first century BC. |
