Bronze Unit 'Cantian L' - Dubnovellaunus

Descrizione del dritto	A boar standing to the right occupies the central field, its characteristic raised dorsal bristles rendered in schematic Celtic style. The body is depicted with bold, abstracted relief typical of Late Iron Age British coinage. Below the animal, the abbreviated royal legend DVBNO is inscribed between two horizontal lines, referencing the issuing king Dubnovellaunus. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with hand-hammered production of the period.

Descrizione del rovescio	An eagle stands facing, rendered in the schematic and abstracted tradition characteristic of British Celtic coinage of the late first century BC. The wings are spread and depicted with incised linear feather detail fanning outward to either side of the central body. The taloned feet are visible at the base of the design, gripping the flan. The field is otherwise plain, with no legend or additional devices present. The overall style reflects the bold, stylised artistic vocabulary common to the Cantian bronze series.
