Beschrijving voorzijde Decorated field featuring a vertical wreath motif flanked by two horizontal lines of inscription, themselves contained between plain border lines. The remaining quarters of the design are occupied by a ring of pellets enclosing a three-armed spiral, arranged in opposing quarters of the flan. The overall composition reflects the abstract La Tène artistic tradition characteristic of late British Celtic coinage, with geometric and vegetal elements interspersed with the divided legend VOLI / SIOS.

Aanvullende informatie

Volisios Cartivellaunos is one of several paired names appearing on late Corieltauvian coinage, a phenomenon unique to this tribe in pre-Roman Britain — almost certainly reflecting joint or co-regnal rule rather than a single ruler's dual name. The arrangement has no clear parallel among contemporary Gaulish or southeastern British issues.

The dating places this stater in the final years before Claudius's invasion of 43 AD, after which tribal coinage in Britain ceased virtually overnight as Roman monetary infrastructure displaced indigenous production across occupied territories.
