背面描述 A stylised horse depicted in left-facing profile with a distinctive beaded or pellet mane, executed in the abstracted curvilinear style characteristic of Late Iron Age British coinage. A smaller subsidiary horse figure appears in the upper field above the principal animal, a motif commonly encountered on Eastern British Celtic issues. The composition fills the irregular flan without inscription or legend, with ancillary decorative devices occupying the surrounding field.

附加信息

This tiny denomination belongs to the coinage tradition of the Trinovantes, the tribe Julius Caesar identified as the most powerful in southeastern Britain during his 55 and 54 BC expeditions. Caesar's campaigns disrupted existing power structures dramatically — the Trinovantes actually sought Roman protection against their neighbours the Catuvellauni, making them unusual among British tribes in their early diplomatic engagement with Rome. Whether these fractional silvers were already circulating during that contact, or struck in its immediate aftermath, remains unresolved.

The Puckeridge findspot concentration points to a mint or distribution centre in Hertfordshire, likely near a tribal boundary zone.
