Stylised head in Armorican style, of Apollonian origin, the hair formed by three rows of crescent-shaped locks pulled back, with a bun behind. Where the ear should be, two parallel lines emerging from two locks, are ending on the cheek in an adornment formed by three pellets disposed as a triangle., Winged androcephalic horse to the left. On the croup, a highly stylised charioteer holding the reins in one hand and a band in the other, which passes over the head of the horse and ends before its head in a square divided by a cross similar to a vexilium. Under the tail, a 4-spoked wheel. Below the androcephalic horse, a reclining figure to the left, wingless, holding a weapon in each hand: a curved dagger in one, a spear in the other., Very interesting specimen! First of all, it is a variety of the class with the two-weaponed wingless figure (Dt. 2150-2153), since the designs are on the left while the types of the rest of the group are on the right. More importantly, the figure who normally holds a curved dagger in his left hand (under the horse's chest), is no longer holding it. Instead, he is holding a long, angular object similar to a hockey stick. Two other sticks are visible above. This design on our example seems to be modelled on the wings of the figure from which it derives, and which was originally winged (Delestrée, series 266, 269, 275, 278 attributed to the Veneti). Unfortunately, it is not possible to clearly distinguish this figure's other weapon, as it is on the periphery of the flan where the strike was too weak to imprint the designs on the die, as is part of the charioteer and the banner he is holding before the horse. There are also a few scratches in the hair on the observe and one before the horse. A very remarkable example, even within this Delestrée 2153 type, with a rare variety, very rarely seen in recent sales.
