Additional information

The Cantii occupied the corner of Britain that would become Kent, and by the early first century AD they were minting under increasing Roman pressure following Caesar's expeditions of 55 and 54 BC. Sego is one of the last identifiable Cantii issuing authorities before Roman administrative reorganization effectively ended tribal coinage in the southeast. The guilloche pattern linking this type is a technical choice, not a tribal emblem — it appears across multiple late Celtic British series as die-cutters worked from shared Mediterranean-influenced templates circulating through the cross-Channel trade networks the Cantii depended on.
