| Reverse description | A stylised figure, interpreted as a horseman or centaur-like warrior motif derived from Gallo-Belgic prototypes, rendered in the highly abstract Linear style typical of late Catuvellaunian coinage. The figure appears in a dynamic striding or galloping pose, with limbs reduced to angular strokes. To the right of the central figure, the abbreviated legend CV-N is inscribed in two separated elements, with pellet ornaments flanking the letters. The overall treatment of the design reflects the late Iron Age British tendency toward geometric abstraction of classical figural types. |
