Obverse description Stylized Celtic head facing left, rendered in the characteristic schematic Gaulish artistic tradition. The effigy wears a laureate helmet, its surface articulated with decorative Celtic motifs. The legend DOCI is incorporated into the design of the helmet as an ornamental element rather than a conventional epigraphic inscription. The facial features are abstracted, with a prominent eye rendered as a pellet or circular boss. The surrounding field is plain, consistent with the cast potin production technique of the Sequani tribe.
