Beschrijving voorzijde Highly abstract and stylised laureate head derived from the classical Macedonian stater prototype, reduced to a series of sinuous relief lines, pellets, and crescentic forms distributed across the flan. The facial elements are rendered in a distinctly Celtic abstract manner, with curved lines suggesting hair wreath and facial features disintegrated into individual decorative components. A prominent crescent motif occupies the lower field, while further pellets and curved relief lines fill the remaining surfaces. The design is uninscribed and executed in the fluid, non-representational idiom characteristic of Corieltauvian gold coinage of the late Iron Age.

Aanvullende informatie

The Corieltauvi occupied a broad territory across what is now Lincolnshire and the East Midlands, and their coinage developed in near-isolation from the Gallo-Belgic imports that shaped tribes further south. The South Ferriby series represents a locally evolved tradition, the designs degrading through successive die generations into increasingly abstract forms — a process that was deliberate stylistic convention, not incompetence. "Transitional Type Two" places this stater at a precise evolutionary moment within that sequence, catalogued by Van Arsdell as part of a die study tracking the progressive abstraction across the series.
