| Beschrijving keerzijde | A lunate horse depicted striding left, rendered in the distinctive linear Celtic style. Above the horse, a rectangular box enclosing four pellets serves as the so-called domino motif, a diagnostic feature of this type. Beneath the horse, a four-armed spiral, typically executed in an anticlockwise direction, occupies the lower field. The composition reflects the sophisticated geometric ornamentation associated with Corieltauvian stater coinage. |

Contemporary counterfeits of Corieltauvi staters were produced close enough in time and place to the originals that they circulated alongside them without apparent detection — a practical reality in a pre-assay tribal economy where weight and appearance mattered more than metal purity. The gold-plated bronze core technique required genuine craft skill; a convincing plating job was not accidental work.
The Corieltauvi occupied much of what is now the East Midlands, and their coinage production spans a politically turbulent period of inter-tribal rivalry and mounting Roman pressure. Whether these pieces were struck by rogue moneyers operating within the tribe's territory or by outside imitators remains unresolved.
