| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a highly stylized Celtic horse prancing to the right, its body rendered with characteristic Celtic abstraction featuring a cluster of pellets at the shoulder and boldly modelled limbs. Above the horse, a large ringed pellet and a smaller pellet ornament the upper field, while a wheel or sunwheel motif with a central pellet and radiating spokes occupies the lower field beneath the horse. Additional abstract leaf- or flame-shaped ornaments are scattered across the field, consistent with Icenian artistic conventions. The design is entirely anepigraphic, executed in the energetic hammered relief typical of Late Iron Age coinage of eastern Britain. |

The Freckenham series takes its name from the Suffolk hoard discovered in 1844, which produced a concentrated group of Icenian gold staters and established the regional typology still used today. The Iceni, occupying what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, maintained gold coinage into the early Roman period — this type likely circulating right up to or through the Boudican revolt of 60–61 AD, after which tribal coinage in the region effectively ceased under Roman suppression.
The phallic sub-classification within this series is among the more precisely catalogued Icenian variants, with Van Arsdell's 620-04 designation distinguishing it by specific pellet arrangement rather than any broad stylistic shift.
