| Obverse description | Bare bearded male head facing right, rendered in the local Iberian artistic tradition. A crescent symbol and a five-pointed star are placed to the right of the effigy in the field. A dolphin appears to the left of the head, a common secondary symbol on Celtiberian bronze coinage. The portrait is bold and stylized, consistent with mid-2nd century BC Hispanic numismatic convention. |

A Celtiberian-script legend in Iberian characters curves along the lower and right periphery of the field, reading the mint name Kalakorikos. Above the horse, a palm branch or similar symbol appears in the upper field. |
