| Reverse description | Stylised Celtic horse advancing right, rendered in the distinctive Iceni abstract manner. The head is solid and compact, with a beaded mane that loops upward above the head before returning to a wing-like terminal motif. The horse displays a characteristic double tail and doubled upper foreleg treatment. Decorative pellet rings appear on either side of the horse, while a prominent multi-armed spiral ornament occupies the field in front of and below the animal, the defining feature of the Snettisham Spiral type. No legend or inscription is present. |
