| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylised horse prances to the right within a beaded border, rendered in the Celtic decorative tradition with abstracted, curvilinear forms. Above the horse's back, a branched or floral ornament rises into the upper field, while a geometrically stylised device appears to the right of the animal. The composition is enclosed within a prominent rope or cable border encircling the entire design. The imagery reflects the late Iron Age British artistic vocabulary characteristic of Catuvellaunian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Catuvellauni and Trinovantes were rival tribes for much of the late Iron Age, but by the early first century AD they had effectively merged under Cunobelinus, whose expanding authority over southeast Britain prompted Strabo to describe the region as Rome's most productive source of grain, cattle, gold, silver, and slaves. Bronze units of this type circulated within that tributary economy. The "Rues" inscription remains incompletely explained — possibly a place name, possibly a mint signature — and the question has not been resolved to any numismatic consensus.
