| Reversbeschreibung | Pegasus depicted in left-facing gallop, rendered in the stylised Celtic artistic tradition with a boldly modelled body and outstretched wings arching above the back. The field is decorated with a multi-pointed star and scattered pellets, characteristic secondary symbols frequently encountered in the coinage of Tasciovanos. The composition fills the flan energetically, with the wing curl visible above the horse's neck and the legs extended in a dynamic leaping pose. The overall engraving style reflects the vigorous, abstracted approach to animal depiction characteristic of late British Iron Age die-cutting. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Tasciovanos ruled the Catuvellauni from roughly the late first century BC, almost certainly operating from Verulamium — modern St Albans — which appears abbreviated on his coinage as VER. His issues mark a significant shift in Celtic British numismatics: unlike his predecessors, Tasciovanos struck in his own name with apparent confidence, suggesting a consolidated tribal authority capable of sustaining a mint. The pegasus type in particular shows strong Gallo-Belgic influence, likely transmitted through cross-channel trade and diplomatic contact rather than direct imitation.
Findspot distributions for his silver units cluster heavily in Hertfordshire and Essex — the Catuvellauni-Trinovantian heartland before the two tribes merged under Cunobelin.
