| Reverse description | Stylised Celtic horse advancing left, depicted in the highly abstracted curvilinear manner typical of Iceni coinage. A large torc is shown encircling the horse's neck, a defining diagnostic feature of this 'Walsingham Wonder' type. The forelegs are rendered with a doubled upper foreleg motif in the upper right. A cross or five-pointed star occupies the area beneath the horse, while a four-spoked wheel device appears above. No legends or inscriptions are present, consistent with the uninscribed coinage of the Iceni in this period. |
