Beschrijving voorzijde A stylised floral motif occupies the upper-centre of the plain field, rendered in characteristic Late Iron Age Celtic artistic convention. The flower comprises six or seven rounded petals arranged radially around a central raised pellet set within a ring, each petal formed by a raised annular lobe. Scattered pellets are disposed around the periphery of the floral design, serving as decorative field ornaments. The flan is irregular in outline, as is typical of hammered Celtic quarter staters of this period. No legend or inscription is present, the design being entirely geometric and emblematic.

Aanvullende informatie

Addedomaros was among the first Celtic rulers in Britain to place his name on coinage — a deliberate act of political self-promotion borrowed from Gaulish practice and likely adopted in direct competition with neighboring dynasts. His issues dominate the Trinovantian record and suggest a reign of real consequence in the decades before Roman intervention reshaped the entire political order of southeast Britain.

Quarter staters of this type are recovered almost exclusively from Essex and Hertfordshire, the Trinovantian and Catuvellauni heartland respectively, pointing to a tightly bounded circulation zone.
