| 背面描述 | A stylised horse depicted in right-facing profile, rendered in the abstracted Celtic artistic tradition typical of Iceni quarter staters. A trefoil motif occupies the field above the horse, functioning as a defining type identifier for this issue. A ringed pellet, consisting of a central pellet enclosed within a circle, appears in the lower field beneath the horse, serving as an additional diagnostic symbol. |

The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, and their coinage developed largely in isolation from the more Gallo-Belgic influenced issues further south — a product of geography and tribal politics rather than ignorance of continental practice. Quarter staters of this type were almost certainly not used in everyday exchange; the weight and gold content point toward gift exchange, tribute, or warrior reward as the more plausible function.
The "Irstead Trefoil" designation derives from the find concentration around the Irstead area of Norfolk, where metal detector recoveries have provided the bulk of known specimens for die study.
