正面描述 Highly stylised and degenerate rendering of a dragon or serpentine motif in the Clacton type tradition, executed in low relief on an irregular flan. The design elements are crudely struck, reflecting the nature of a contemporary counterfeit produced with substandard dies and a base metal core. The gold plating, now largely worn or degraded, partially survives across the flat field. A pellet border is faintly discernible along portions of the periphery. No legend or inscription is present.

附加信息

Contemporary counterfeits of Iron Age staters are well documented across southeastern Britain, produced by local smiths who understood the coins' exchange function well enough to approximate their form while substituting base metal for gold. The Clacton type — associated with the Trinovantes of Essex — was among those most frequently imitated, likely because it circulated heavily in coastal trade networks where velocity of exchange made close scrutiny impractical.

At 0.8g, this piece is well below the weight floor of any genuine fractional issue of the series.
