| Obverse description | Plain, largely unadorned field bearing three raised parallel bands extending across the flan, a highly abstracted and schematic rendering ultimately derived from the laureate head of Apollo found on earlier Macedonian stater prototypes. The bands are bold and well-defined in relief against the smooth gold surface, constituting the sole decorative element of the obverse. The flan is irregular in outline, characteristic of hand-struck Celtic coinage, with no border, legend, or additional ornamental devices present. |
