| Reverse description | A horseman galloping to the right dominates the central field, depicted in the abstract, schematised manner typical of late Iron Age Celtic coinage of southeastern Britain. The rider's posture and the horse's legs are rendered with bold, if stylised, strokes. The Latin legend DVBNOVALLAVNOS is distributed around the periphery of the irregularly shaped flan, identifying the issuing authority as the Cantian ruler Dubnovellaunos. The overall fabric is typical of struck bronze units of this period, with uneven flan edges and natural surface patination. |
