| Reverse description | A boar standing to the right, depicted in a vigorous and characteristically Celtic linear style with exaggerated bristles along the spine and sturdy legs indicated by incised lines. The animal occupies the central field, conveying the symbolic importance of the boar in Iron Age British iconography as an emblem of strength and fertility. Below and around the figure, the abbreviated legend TASC FIL — identifying Cunobelin as the son of Tasciovanos — appears in Latin characters, establishing dynastic legitimacy. The overall composition is compact and confident, consistent with the mature Catuvellaunian bronze coinage tradition. |
