| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field divided by two parallel horizontal lines bearing the legend VOLI / SIOS in two registers, flanked above by a stylised vertical wreath rendered in Late Celtic fashion. The remaining quarters of the flan are adorned with a ring of pellets enclosing a three-armed spiral motif, disposed in diagonally opposite quarters, imparting a rotational symmetry characteristic of Corieltauvian coinage. The overall design is typical of the abstract, pattern-based obverse types produced by this tribe in the terminal phase of Iron Age British coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Volisios Dumnovellaunos is one of several joint rulers attested on Corieltauvian coinage — an arrangement unique among British Iron Age tribes, suggesting shared or contested authority in the East Midlands during the decades immediately preceding and following the Claudian invasion of 43 AD. Whether this issue predates the conquest or was struck in its immediate aftermath, under whatever accommodation the tribe made with Rome, remains unresolved. The Corieltauvi were not among the tribes that resisted; their comparatively swift submission may explain why coinage production continued briefly into the conquest period at all.
