Bronze Unit - Cunobelin Cunobelinus Camuloduno

Cunobelinus ruled from Camulodunum — modern Colchester — for roughly four decades, making him the longest-reigning and most powerful of the late Iron Age British kings. Shakespeare's Cymbeline is a garbled version of him, which tells you something about how deeply his name embedded itself into later tradition. His control over both the Catuvellauni and Trinovantes gave him dominance over the most productive agricultural and trading zones in southeastern Britain, and Roman sources, including Suetonius, cite the disruption following his death as a direct trigger for Claudius's invasion of 43 AD.

Bronze units of this type were struck at Camulodunum itself, a mint town that would later become the first Roman colonial capital of Britain.
