Gold Stater Freckenham Crescents Wheel Type

The Freckenham Wheel type sits within the final flourishing of Iceni gold coinage, produced during a period when the tribe maintained de facto autonomy under Roman suzerainty following Caesar's invasions. Iceni gold issues ceased abruptly — likely in the years surrounding the client-king arrangements imposed by Rome — making this among the last uninscribed native gold struck in eastern Britain.

ABC 1438 is primarily concentrated in hoards from the Freckenham area of Suffolk, which gave the series its name.
