| Reverse description | A naturalistic horse with an oversized ear gallops to the right, its mane depicted as a series of small dashes and its tail rendered as a single strand. Above the horse, a cross pattée with a ringed pellet at the centre — resembling a Maltese cross — appears, occasionally degraded in execution to a radiating flower of lines. Below the horse, two pellet suns, each composed of a ring surrounding a large central pellet, occupy the field. The composition is characteristic of late pre-Roman Iron Age Celtic coinage of the Catuvellauni. |
