| Obverse description | A stylized three-pointed floral motif occupies the central field, rendered in bold relief characteristic of late Celtic coinage. Each of the three arms terminates in a large globular boss, radiating symmetrically from a central bulbous element, evoking an abstract trefoil or triskeles-derived design. The entire device is set within a plain, slightly convex flan with irregular, naturally formed borders typical of hammered Celtic gold staters. The surface of the field surrounding the motif displays the characteristic striated texture of hand-worked gold. No legend or inscription is present, consistent with the aniconic tradition of the Vindelician coinage series. |
