| Reverse description | The reverse is heavily worn and largely featureless, showing a plain or near-plain field with only faint, indistinct traces of design surviving. The surface is covered in green-bronze patination with scattered pitting, consistent with long-term burial and the degradation typical of silver-plated base-metal contemporary forgeries. A few scattered pellets or remnants of the original die design may be discerned under close examination, but no coherent iconographic programme is legible. The inscription ANTĐ (for Antedios), recorded for the series, is not visible on this example due to heavy wear. The irregular flan edge and surface condition confirm the coin's nature as a contemporary counterfeit of a Icenian unit struck in the name of king Antedios. |
