| Aversbeschreibung | Stylised Celtic head depicted in profile facing right, rendered in the characteristic abstract manner of Late Iron Age British coinage. The face features a prominent schematised eye rendered as a series of curved lines, a simplified nose, and a defined chin with linear detailing suggesting a beard or jaw ornament. The hair or headdress is represented by a bold arc of pellets and segmented raised elements radiating along the crown and neck, evoking a sun or solar motif consistent with the 'Dead Head Sun' type designation. The field is plain and unlettered. The overall execution reflects the distinctive Icenian artistic tradition of geometric abstraction derived from earlier continental prototypes. |

The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and northern Suffolk, a client kingdom that maintained uneasy accommodation with Rome following the invasion of 43 AD. This type belongs to the late phase of Iceni silver coinage, produced during a period when the tribe retained nominal autonomy while Roman commercial and political pressure steadily eroded it. The monetary system these coins served would collapse entirely with the death of Prasutagus around 60 AD and the catastrophic revolt of his widow Boudica, which Roman forces suppressed with a ferocity that effectively ended independent Iceni political life.
