| Obverse description | Bare male head facing right, rendered in the Ibero-Punic artistic tradition, with stylized hair falling in locks behind the neck. A dolphin is depicted to the left of the effigy in the field, and a palm leaf appears to the right, both serving as characteristic symbols of the Kelin mint. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat flat, consistent with early Iberian bronze coinage of this period. |

| Reverse description | Mounted horseman advancing to the right at full gallop, brandishing a long spear or lance horizontally above his head in a dynamic martial posture typical of Iberian coinage of the late 3rd century BC. The horse is rendered with elongated legs and a raised tail. An Iberian legend in the Levantine semi-syllabic script appears in the lower field and exergue, reading the mint name of Kelin. A small symbol or letter is visible above the horse in the upper field. |
