Silver Unit South Ferriby Left

The Corieltauvi occupied a territory roughly corresponding to the East Midlands, and their coinage developed later and more idiosyncratically than that of tribes further south. The "South Ferriby" designation comes from the Lincolnshire find site where a significant hoard first drew systematic attention to this regional type. Unlike many British tribal issues, Corieltauvi coins were likely produced by multiple minting centres across a diffuse tribal confederacy rather than a single controlled mint — which accounts for the considerable variation collectors encounter within a single type classification.
