| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised wolf striding left with jaws agape, rendered in the distinctive geometric Celtic artistic tradition of the Norfolk Wolf stater series. A bird is depicted perched upon the wolf's back, a characteristic motif of this Icenian type. Above the wolf, a scatter of pellets occupies the upper field, while a single pellet and a solid crescent are positioned below the animal, serving as the primary identifying features of this specific variety. The overall composition is bold and energetic, demonstrating accomplished die-cutting within the late Iron Age British coinage tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, and their coinage emerged partly through contact with Belgic tribes crossing from the continent — not from Roman influence, which came later. This specific type, classified under Van Arsdell 610, belongs to a period when the tribe maintained genuine political independence, decades before Prasutagus's client-kingdom arrangement with Rome and the catastrophic revolt of Boudicca in 60–61 AD. The pellet and crescent are regional die markers distinguishing Norfolk production from related Suffolk types, a distinction that matters for provenance work on metal-detected finds.
