Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised horse prancing left, executed in the abstract Celtic artistic idiom characteristic of Corieltauvian coinage. A prominent double pellet-in-ring device is prominently placed in the upper right field, accompanied by a second such device to the lower left. A triskele motif appears above the horse and a further triskele is positioned below the animal's body. A pellet-beaded exergual line runs beneath the horse, and additional pellet-and-annulet ornaments are distributed throughout the field, consistent with the decorative vocabulary of this series.

Aanvullende informatie

The Corieltauvi occupied a broad territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire, and their coinage is notably distinct from the better-documented southern British tribes — less influenced by Gallo-Belgic imports, more locally idiosyncratic in its development. This type sits at an early stage of that tradition, predating the later named coinages associated with rulers like Volisios, which suggests issue by tribal authority rather than any individual magistrate or king.

The absence of a spear distinguishes this from related boar types and likely marks a specific die workshop or chronological sub-phase within the series rather than a deliberate iconographic choice.
