Silver Unit Bury Diadem / Bury Type A

The Bury Diadem type takes its name from the Bury St. Edmunds hoard found in Suffolk — Iceni heartland — where a significant concentration of these units was recovered, giving numismatists the reference group used to establish the type's classification. The Iceni are best known from later Roman accounts surrounding the Boudican revolt of 60–61 AD, but this coinage predates that crisis by generations, circulating through a period when the tribe was still operating as a largely autonomous client kingdom under Roman influence following the Claudian invasion.
