| Reverse description | Stylised equestrian figure wearing a crested helmet advancing to left, rendered in the schematic Celtic manner derived from Macedonian tetradrachm prototypes. The horse's body is depicted with bold, abstracted lines, the legs reduced to summary strokes. A crescent symbol appears before the rider, and a pellet is placed below the horse. The composition fills the flan in a dynamic if highly Celticised arrangement, with no legend present, consistent with the anonymous Hercuniate coinage of this series. |
