Beschrijving voorzijde A stylised boar depicted in profile facing left, rendered in the distinctive Celtic curvilinear artistic tradition. The body is textured with punched pellet work to suggest bristled hide, and the animal stands on solid legs without a spear motif. Above the boar's back, a prominent floral sun symbol composed of a central ringed pellet encircled by a ring of smaller pellets dominates the upper field. A large ringed pellet or spiral motif occupies the left field. The design is characteristic of the S-Triad Proto series of the Corieltauvi, with no inscriptions present.

Aanvullende informatie

The Corieltauvi occupied a substantial territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire, and their coinage developed largely in isolation from the more Gaulish-influenced tribes to the south. This type belongs to a loose grouping of uninscribed silver units predating the tribe's later adoption of ruler names — meaning it was struck before any identifiable chief thought to put his name on the money, or before that practice had diffused this far north.

The absence of a spear distinguishes this variety from related issues and is the primary diagnostic for the ABC 1782 attribution.
