Beschrijving voorzijde Abstract wreath design composed of paired lines of leaves with interior ends directed inward toward a central motif of back-to-back single-line arcs, separated by a thin dividing line. A ringed pellet appears on each side of the central arcs, positioned within the field. The overall composition reflects the highly stylized Late Iron Age Celtic artistic tradition, in which naturalistic wreath forms have been reduced to geometric linear elements.

Beschrijving keerzijde Naturalistic horse prancing left, rendered without an eye, with the hind legs splayed rearward in a characteristic Late Iron Age Celtic style. A curving, leafy branch occupies the space below the horse. A trefoil or teardrop triad device appears above the horse's back. Pellets are distributed in the field above, below, in front of the horse, below the head, and beneath the tail. On some specimens, ringed pellets replace standard pellets above the head and above the tail, constituting a recognized die variety.

Aanvullende informatie

Dubnovellaunos ruled jointly over the Trinovantes and Catuvellauni at a moment when Roman commercial and political pressure on southeastern Britain was intensifying under Augustus. His coinage — including this quarter stater — is among the earliest in Britain to show signs of continental trade influence in fabric and weight standard, reflecting an aristocracy increasingly enmeshed in cross-channel networks. The "two or no rings" designation refers to a documented die variation within Sills 545, not a separate issue, making attribution of individual specimens a matter of close die study rather than type assignment.
