Silver Unit 'Dobunnic C' - Boduoc

Boduoc is one of the few Dobunnic rulers whose name appears on coinage, suggesting a late pre-conquest move toward named royal authority that mirrors developments among neighboring tribes. The Dobunni, centered in what is now Gloucestershire, were unusual in their apparent willingness to negotiate with Rome — their leading faction reportedly submitted to Aulus Plautius even before the main Claudian advance reached their territory in 43 AD.

The Spink 389 attribution places this firmly in the terminal phase of Dobunnic silver production, a series already characterized by strikingly small flans and pronounced die wear.
