| Beschrijving voorzijde | Flat, irregular flan bearing the abbreviated Latin legend CAMVL across the central field, referencing the mint of Camulodunum (modern Colchester). The lettering is rendered in bold, somewhat rustic characters typical of late British Iron Age coinage. The field shows minimal decorative elements, with the inscription dominating the design. The surface exhibits characteristic hammered texture with uneven flan edges. The overall style reflects the Romanising tendencies of Cunobelin's coinage. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field occupied by a Classical-style amphora, rendered in a schematic yet recognisable manner, reflecting the strong Mediterranean cultural influence on Cunobelin's coinage. The vessel is depicted with pronounced handles and a tapering body, consistent with Roman amphorae familiar through trade. The abbreviated royal legend CVNOBE appears in the field, identifying the issuing authority as Cunobelin, king of the Catuvellauni and Trinovantes. The design is executed in the hammered style characteristic of British Iron Age silver units, with an irregularly shaped flan and slightly granular surface. The amphora motif is widely interpreted as a deliberate reference to cross-Channel commerce and the prestige of Roman goods. |
