| Obverse description | Male head facing left, laureate with elaborately rendered hair, enclosed within a beaded border. The portrait is rendered in the Ibero-Roman artistic tradition characteristic of Celtiberian bronze coinage of the second century BC. The facial features are boldly modelled with a prominent nose and well-defined eye. The neck truncation is plain, and the overall style reflects local die-cutting traditions influenced by Roman Republican coinage. |

| Reverse description | Armoured horseman galloping to the right, holding a lance or spear in the raised right hand; the rider wears a crested helmet and military attire typical of Celtiberian iconography. The horse is depicted in full gallop with flowing mane and tail. Below the horse, the mint legend in Celtiberian script is inscribed within a linear border, identifying the issuing city. The composition is enclosed within a beaded outer border, consistent with Hispano-Celtic bronze coinage of the period. |
