| Additional information |
The Corieltauvi occupied a broad territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire, and are notable among British Iron Age tribes for issuing coinage collaboratively — many of their coins bear paired names, suggesting a dual-magistracy or joint rulership arrangement without parallel elsewhere in pre-Roman Britain. The 'D' classification within this series reflects a typological grouping by modern scholars rather than any ancient denomination hierarchy; the tribe itself left no written record of how these fractions functioned within their economy.
At this weight, the piece would have contained only a modest amount of silver, likely alloyed further as the series progressed toward its end date near the Claudian conquest horizon.
