Silver Unit 'Cantian N' - Amminus

Amminus was a son of Cunobelinus — the most powerful British ruler of the early 1st century — who controlled the Cantii territory in what is now Kent before being expelled, likely by his own father or brothers, and fleeing to the Roman emperor Caligula around 39–40 AD. That flight is recorded by Suetonius, who mocks Caligula for treating the defection of a minor tribal prince as a major military triumph. These coins almost certainly predate that expulsion, placing their issue within a narrow and politically turbulent window.
