| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised stag facing left in high Celtic abstract style, depicted with elongated branching horns and a pronounced upswept tail. The creature's eye is rendered as a pellet-in-annulet, a characteristic artistic convention of the Eastern North Thames coinage series. Additional pellets and annulets are scattered above the animal's back, two annulets appear in the field before the stag, and a pellet-in-annulet is placed below, filling the field in the typical decorative manner of Trinovantian miniature coinage. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Trinovantes occupied territory roughly equivalent to modern Essex and southern Suffolk, and were among the few British tribes to seek Roman protection — famously appealing to Julius Caesar during his 54 BC expedition against Cassivellaunus, their Catuvellauni rival. This minuscule denomination circulated in that exact diplomatic and military window. At 0.23g, minims functioned at the lowest tier of Celtic coinage exchange, likely facilitating small transactions within tribal markets rather than any cross-tribal trade.
Van Arsdell 1680-1 is among the more precisely attributed minim subtypes, distinguished by the petal arrangement diagnostic to Eastern North Thames classification.
