Silver Unit South Ferriby Plain

The Corieltauvi occupied a territory roughly corresponding to the modern East Midlands, and their coinage — including this plain-type unit — developed without the die-engraving sophistication seen in southern British tribes who had more direct contact with Gaulish prototypes. The deliberate absence of figural design on the plain types may reflect a distinct regional minting convention rather than technical limitation; the tribe produced more elaborate issues concurrently.

Hoards from Lincolnshire and Leicestershire remain the primary source of specimens, with the North Ferriby and South Ferriby findspot clusters giving this type its name.
