| Beschrijving voorzijde | Abstract Celtic design featuring a stylised arrangement of hair locks rendered as curved linear elements, framed above and below by pellet-bordered lines evoking a wreath motif. The lower portion of the flan displays a series of crescent forms interspersed with pellet-in-ring ornaments, characteristic of Trinovantian decorative vocabulary. The design is executed in the deeply abstract Iron Age British tradition, with no legible inscription or portrait. The composition demonstrates skilled die-cutting in the La Tène artistic style, with confident, fluid toolwork despite the small flan size. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Heybridge type takes its name from the Essex site where examples were first documented in significant numbers — Heybridge (Roman Caesaromagus-adjacent) sat within Trinovantian territory at a moment when Caesar's two incursions of 55 and 54 BC had already forced the tribe into a client relationship with Rome. Whether these fractional issues functioned as transactional currency or as prestige gift exchange among the elite remains genuinely contested. The striking is characteristically loose by continental standards, a product of flan preparation methods that prioritized speed over uniformity.
