| Reverse description | A horse rearing or prancing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in the schematic yet dynamic Celtic style typical of Cunobelin's coinage. A branch or plant motif is visible above the horse in the upper field. The legend CVNO, an abbreviated form of the ruler's name Cunobelin, appears below the horse in a recessed panel or exergual area. The execution is somewhat crude and the flan irregular, reflecting the nature of this piece as a contemporary counterfeit of the official Camulodunum stater type. |
