Beschrijving voorzijde Two curved crossed wreaths arranged back-to-back in the central field, forming a cruciform pattern. A pair of back-to-back crescents occupies the centre of the design. Decorative rings or pellets fill the angles between the wreaths, a characteristic motif of the Tasciovanos coinage. The overall composition is rendered in the abstract, stylised artistic tradition typical of Late Iron Age Celtic coinage in Britain.

Aanvullende informatie

Tasciovanos ruled the Catuvellauni from roughly the mid-first century BC into the early first century AD, operating out of Verulamium — present-day St Albans — and at times striking coins that bear the mint signature VER. His coinage represents one of the earliest uses of named royal authority on British Celtic issues, almost certainly borrowed in concept from contact with Roman Gaul. The quarter stater denomination circulated as a high-value transactional piece in an economy where bullion weight still mattered more than face value.
