Beschrijving voorzijde Stylised Celtic wreath design centred on a prominent ringed pellet enclosed within a raised concentric ring, forming the focal point of the composition. To each side, a beaded leaf motif — rendered in typical Late Iron Age abstract style — encloses a subsidiary ringed pellet or annulet. The overall design is highly schematised, characteristic of Icenian goldsmithing, with decorative elements arranged symmetrically around the central device. The irregular flan exhibits the typical characteristics of hand-struck Celtic coinage. No legend or inscription is present.

Aanvullende informatie

The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and parts of Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, operating as a client kingdom under Roman tolerance until the death of Prasutagus in 60 AD triggered the catastrophic revolt of Boudicca. The Halesworth Horse type takes its name from the Suffolk find area, and the quarter stater denomination functioned within a gift and tribute economy as much as a commercial one — Celtic gold fractions of this size rarely changed hands in everyday exchange.

ABC 1468 is among the later Iceni struck gold issues, placing it in the decades when Roman monetary influence was already reshaping native coinage habits across the southeast.
