| Aversbeschreibung | Essentially plain, uniface obverse field exhibiting a broad, slightly convex flan with no deliberate design motif. Faint vestigial traces of a crossed-wreath pattern, derived from the Macedonian gold stater prototype, may occasionally be discerned in the field. The surface is characteristically irregular, reflecting the hand-hammered technique of British Iron Age coinage production. No legend, inscription, or portrait is present. The blank obverse is a diagnostic feature of this Eastern Wiltshire Savernake Forest type. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Stylised, attenuated horse advancing to the right, rendered in a highly abstract Celtic artistic idiom characteristic of late British Iron Age coinage. The horse's body is formed by curved lines and three large pellets, with a distinctive pellet mane above the spine. A prominent solar spiral decorates the field above the horse, while a large spoked wheel motif occupies the area below. A torc-like curved ornament appears in front of the horse's head, and scattered pellets fill the surrounding field. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Dobunni occupied a territory centered on what is now Gloucestershire and the surrounding region, and their coinage — among the more prolific of British Iron Age issues — circulated across a network of tribal relationships that included uneasy borders with the Atrebates to the south and the Catuvellauni to the east. The East Wiltshire / Savernake Forest attribution is a findspot classification, not a mint designation; these coins cluster archaeologically around the forest zone, suggesting either a distribution point or a pattern of ritual deposition.
No individual ruler name appears on this type, placing it among the earlier, uninscribed Dobunnic issues predating the named coinage of Anted, Eisv, and their successors.
