背面描述 A stylised horse advancing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner characteristic of Icenian quarter staters. A cross device is placed on the rump of the horse, serving as a distinctive typological marker for this issue. Numerous pellets are scattered throughout the field above, below, and around the horse, creating a densely decorated composition. No legend or inscription is present. The design reflects the degenerate but energetic artistic tradition derived ultimately from Macedonian prototype coinage.

附加信息

The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, and their gold stater coinage was already in decline by the time this fractional issue entered circulation — Roman economic pressure was systematically displacing native gold with imported currency. The "Mildenhall Mystery" designation reflects genuine scholarly disagreement about attribution; the type was grouped under this name precisely because its issuing authority within the Iceni hierarchy cannot be confidently assigned to any named ruler or sub-group.

At 0.9g, these quarters were already pushing the lower practical threshold for everyday exchange. Hoarding, not heavy use, accounts for most surviving examples.
