| Beschrijving keerzijde | Celticized horse depicted in right-facing profile, rendered in the highly stylized and abstract manner typical of Late Iron Age British coinage. The mane is indicated by a row of pellets arranged along the dorsal line, while additional pellets and annular devices populate the field surrounding the animal. The horse's anatomy is rendered in a schematic, fragmented Celtic idiom, with limbs and body parts dissolved into geometric and curvilinear elements. Further pellets and ring ornaments are dispersed throughout the field, filling the available space in the traditional Trinovantian decorative convention. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Trinovantes occupied what is now Essex and southern Suffolk, and by the mid-first century BC were among the most politically consequential tribes in southeast Britain — it was their appeal to Julius Caesar against Catuvellauni aggression that drew him into his second British expedition of 54 BC. Quarter staters of this type circulated in the decades following that intervention, when coinage was increasingly used to move wealth between tribal elites rather than for everyday exchange. Findspot patterns cluster heavily around Camulodunum, modern Colchester, which served as the tribal center before the Catuvellauni absorbed it entirely by the early first century AD.
