| Reversbeschreibung | A triple-tailed annulate horse striding left, rendered in the highly stylised abstract tradition characteristic of late British Iron Age coinage. Below the horse, a three-petal flower or triskele-like floral motif occupies the lower field. Above the horse, a highly abstracted bird-head device incorporating a crescent and winged pellet-in-ring motif serves as the customary Celtic flying symbol. Two pellets are positioned above the horse's tail in the upper field. The composition is typical of the Dobunnic silver unit series, combining zoomorphic and geometric decorative elements in a fluid, curvilinear style. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Dobunni occupied the Severn valley and surrounding uplands — roughly modern Gloucestershire and parts of Oxfordshire — and their silver coinage emerged relatively late compared to neighboring tribes, likely reflecting a political consolidation under named rulers in the decades surrounding the Roman invasion. The name Antedrig appears on related issues and is one of only a handful of pre-conquest Dobunnic ruler names known from the coinage itself, though whether these names denote kings, sub-kings, or magistrates remains unresolved among Iron Age specialists.
Van Arsdell's sequencing places this type near the end of Dobunnic silver production, before Roman administrative reorganization made indigenous coin minting redundant.
