Beschrijving keerzijde Stylised horse advancing to the left in the abstract Celtic artistic tradition, with doubled upper forelegs rendered as a distinctive decorative convention. A pellet triad is placed between the forelegs, serving as a principal subsidiary ornament in the field. A single letter inscription appears above the horse, consistent with the abbreviated legends associated with the later Corieltauvi coinage series. The overall composition reflects the highly schematised treatment of the equine motif characteristic of East Midlands Celtic coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The Corieltauvi occupied a large territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire, and their coinage is unusual among British Celtic issues for frequently showing paired or sequential names — possibly indicating joint rulership, a dynastic arrangement with no close parallel elsewhere in pre-Roman Britain. This tiny silver fraction circulated in the decades immediately before Claudius's invasion of 43 AD effectively ended indigenous coin production across most of the island.

ABC 1848 is among the smallest denominations the tribe produced. At half a unit, these were struck for real transactional use, not prestige display.
