Beschrijving voorzijde A stylised Celtic boar facing right occupies the central field, rendered in the fluid, abstracted manner characteristic of Late Iron Age British coinage. The creature's back is adorned with prominent pincushion-style bristles, while the tail is depicted straight rather than curled. The foreground legs appear solid, while the rearmost pair are bifurcated in a schematic convention. No spear is present in the shoulder, distinguishing this variety from related issues. The surrounding field is decorated with a scattering of rings enclosing one or two pellets, serving as decorative fill elements typical of Corieltauvian die-work.

Aanvullende informatie

The Corieltauvi occupied a territory roughly corresponding to the East Midlands, and their coinage developed largely in isolation from the more Mediterranean-influenced issues of the southern tribes. This type predates the introduction of the spear motif that defines later Corieltauvian boar issues, placing it among the earliest recognizable coins attributable to this tribal grouping with any confidence.

The two-pellet diagnostic is a subtle but reliable die-identifier within the proto series.
