| Aversbeschreibung | Highly stylised and abstracted derivation of an Apollo head facing right, rendered in the Late Iron Age Celtic tradition. The wreath is depicted with leaves turned inward, accompanied by a cloak and crescent motifs. A prominent spike flanked by two crescents dominates the upper field, while a diagonal linear depression appears to the right of the curls. A stylised yoke device is positioned to the right of the linear depression, and a spiral element appears further right. The curls of the hair are rendered almost as complete circles rather than true crescents, and the design is enriched with small pellets near the crescents and spike, with numerous tiny pellets often scattered throughout the field. |

Corieltauvian staters were already debased versions of earlier Gallo-Belgic prototypes, so a contemporary counterfeit of a coin already drifting from its gold standard carries a particular irony. These plated forgeries — a bronze core struck with genuine dies or close copies, then foil-wrapped or electroplated in gold — circulated alongside official issues and were almost certainly produced by individuals within or adjacent to the tribal economy rather than by foreign forgers. The distinction between "official" and "counterfeit" in Iron Age Britain is murkier than it appears; tribal minting lacked the institutional enforcement that would make such a boundary meaningful.
