| 背面描述 | Highly stylized disjointed horse prancing to the right, rendered in the abstract Celtic artistic vocabulary typical of late Iron Age Dobunni coinage. The horse's body is broken into curvilinear and pellet-decorated elements, with a prominent arched neck and schematic legs indicated by radiating lines. A wheel or solar symbol appears in the lower field below the horse, and a large pellet is visible above the horse's back to the upper right. Scattered pellets and other abstract ornamental devices fill the field, and the legend CORIO is associated with this type as the issuing authority's name. |

The Dobunni occupied a territory centered on the modern Cotswolds, and their coinage sequence is one of the better-documented among British Celtic issues precisely because several types carry inscribed names — Corio among them. Whether these names denote kings, magistrates, or some other authority remains genuinely contested; the tribal structure of late Iron Age Britain didn't map neatly onto the coin-issuing hierarchies of Gaul or Rome. Corio is attested on only a small cluster of types, making the absolute chronology tight and the total surviving population correspondingly modest.
