Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised horse prancing to the right, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner characteristic of Iceni silver coinage. The horse displays a large open head with a flame-like projection issuing from the mouth, a beaded mane, and notably bifurcated upper forelegs. A spoked wheel appears in the upper field above the horse. Below the horse, the design occurs in two varieties: either a spoked wheel or a pellet triad, distinguishing the two known sub-types of this issue.

Aanvullende informatie

The Plouviez type belongs to a cluster of late Iceni uninscribed silver units struck in the decades before Roman administrative pressure began reshaping tribal coinage across southeast Britain. The Iceni, based in what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, maintained a distinct coinage tradition notably resistant to the Belgic stylistic influence that was transforming neighboring tribal issues during this period. These small silver units circulated within a tight geographic range; findspot distributions remain concentrated enough that they function almost as a fingerprint for Iceni territorial boundaries.

The BMC cross-references 3539 and 3546 suggest minor die variation within the type rather than distinct issues.
