| Beschrijving keerzijde | A horse rearing to the right rendered in the energetic, abstracted Celtic style, its mane indicated by a series of short dashes or pellet-tipped strokes along the neck and back. A decorative branch or plant motif occupies the space above the horse, while the abbreviated legend AGR is positioned in the lower field beneath the animal. The composition is typical of Cunobelinian quarter staters, combining dynamic zoomorphic imagery with dynastic titulature in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Produced in the final years before the Claudian invasion of 43 AD, this issue belongs to the coinage of Cunobelinus — the dominant ruler of southeast Britain whose power base at Camulodunum (modern Colchester) controlled much of the Thames estuary trade. Roman writers, including Suetonius, noted his death as one of the triggers that destabilized the region and gave Claudius his pretext for conquest. Coins of this type almost certainly stopped being struck when the legions landed.
