| Reversbeschreibung | Severely degraded representation of a bull advancing to the left, the body reduced to a series of curved and linear relief elements characteristic of late Celtic schematisation. A prominent central boss or pellet marks the body of the animal, serving as a vestigial rendering of the musculature or spine. A horizontal exergual line runs beneath the figure, dividing the design from the lower field. No inscription is present; the overall composition reflects the advanced stylistic debasement typical of the Thurrock potin series. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Thurrock-type potins are among the earliest coins struck in Britain, predating the Roman conquest by well over a century and possibly introduced through trade contact with the Belgic Gaulish communities who produced the Continental prototypes. The "chicken head" designation refers to the progressive abstraction of a Classical head motif through successive generations of casting — by this stage the original source type is nearly unrecognizable, distilled into a handful of pellets and lines. These were cast rather than struck, produced in clay strip moulds that left a characteristic sprue mark on the flan.
