| Obverse description | Heavily stylised Celtic head facing right, rendered in the characteristic late La Tène abstract manner. The hair is depicted as bold, sweeping relief lines radiating from the crown, flanking the face in exaggerated curved strokes. A cluster of pellets surmounts the head, indicative of the Bartkranzavers ('bearded wreath obverse') typology. A geometric square symbol appears before the face in the field, while a torque — the iconic Celtic neck ornament rendered as a beaded arc — is visible below the chin. |
