| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylised bearded male head facing right, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition. The legend DIAS appears in Latin characters before the portrait in the field. The design reflects the abstracted, linear treatment characteristic of late Iron Age British coinage, with facial features reduced to bold relief lines. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A rotund, stylised Pegasus depicted in flight to the right, with wings and legs rendered in the characteristic abstract Celtic manner. The figure occupies the central field of the flan, with body proportions deliberately exaggerated in the native British tradition. The design derives ultimately from classical Macedonian prototypes but has been substantially transformed through successive Celtic reinterpretation. |

The Catuvellauni and Trinovantes occupied the territory roughly corresponding to modern Hertfordshire and Essex, and by the first decade AD their coinage was increasingly influenced by contact with Roman Gaul — traded goods, diplomatic gifts, and hostage exchanges all brought Continental monetary conventions into the region. Cunobelin, who consolidated power over both tribes during this period, issued prolifically enough that attributing specific types to precise reigns or sub-authorities remains genuinely contested among specialists.
ABC 2745 is among the smaller and less frequently encountered units in the series. Die-linked specimens have surfaced almost exclusively from detector finds in the Thames basin.
