Beschrijving keerzijde A Capricorn-Pegasus hybrid creature depicted in a prancing or leaping pose facing right, combining the body of a horse with aquatic or draconic attributes characteristic of late Celtic coinage. The reverse field is populated with pellets and abstract decorative elements typical of Catuvellaunian bronze issues. A double pellet ring border frames the entire design, forming a decorative boundary around the flan edge. The rendering is vigorous and stylized, consistent with the native British coinage tradition of the late 1st century BC.

Aanvullende informatie

Andoco is one of the more obscure rulers of the Catuvellauni, known almost entirely through his coinage rather than any historical record — no Roman or British source names him directly. His issues appear to overlap chronologically with Tasciovanus, suggesting either a subordinate or rival role within the tribal hierarchy, possibly governing a sub-region while the senior ruler held Verulamium. The "Ando Tasc" inscription linking both names on certain bronzes has generated considerable debate about whether this denotes co-rulership or a dynastic succession claim.
