| Reverse description | A stylized horse prancing to the left, rendered in the characteristic Celtic abstract manner with a spiky mane and exaggerated musculature. Above the horse's back appears a recumbent or lying S-shaped ornament, rendered as a sinuous curvilinear motif typical of La Tène decorative art. Below the horse is an amphora, serving as a control symbol. The field is plain and the entire design is executed in the bold, schematic style characteristic of Arvernian gold coinage of the mid-first century BC. |
