Beschrijving voorzijde Stylised wreath motif occupying the field, rendered in bold Celtic abstract relief. At the centre, two plain crescents placed back-to-back form the principal design element, flanked on each side by a pellet-in-ring ornament. The composition is characteristic of late Iron Age Icenian die-cutting, with deeply cut, flowing forms and no inscription.

Beschrijving keerzijde A horse shown stepping to the right with a solid, compact head, rendered in the schematic Celtic tradition. A trefoil ornament is positioned above the horse in the upper field, while a pellet-in-ring device appears below, serving as a ground element. The flan is irregular and the relief bold, consistent with hand-hammered Icenian quarter stater coinage of the late pre-Roman period.

Aanvullende informatie

The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, and their coinage developed largely independently of the Gallo-Belgic imports that influenced much of southern Britain. The "Dubno" series — the name derived from a Celtic word for "deep" or "world" — represents a late phase of Iceni gold production, issued in the decades immediately before the Claudian invasion of 43 AD began dismantling tribal monetary autonomy across the island. The Irstead find spot, a village near the Norfolk Broads, places this type squarely within the Iceni heartland.

ABC 1471 is among the smaller fractional issues, and surviving examples are notably few.
