| Reverse description | A horse prances to the right in a dynamic, stylised Celtic rendering, its body composed of bold curves and pellet ornaments that are characteristic of late British Iron Age coinage. A charioteer or rider figure appears above and behind the horse, depicted in abstracted form with limbs rendered as sweeping lines. Various decorative pellets and annulets are scattered across the field, including a pellet-in-ring motif beneath the horse on certain die varieties. The legend CVNO appears in the lower portion of the field, serving as an abbreviation for Cunobelin, king of the Catuvellauni and Trinovantes. The flan edges are irregular, consistent with the hammered production technique of the period. |
