Beschrijving voorzijde Stylised Celtic proto-boar rendered in high relief, depicted in profile facing right, with characteristic abstract body formed from flowing curvilinear elements. Two prominent annulets, each composed of a ring of raised pellets enclosing a central pellet, are positioned above and below the boar's body, lending the type its defining 'two-ring' classification. A diagonal spear or linear element crosses the upper field. The overall composition is executed in the bold, abstract La Tène artistic tradition, with no legend or inscription, typical of pre-inscribed Corieltauvian coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The Corieltauvi occupied a broad territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, and Leicestershire, and their coinage tradition developed later than that of the southeastern tribes — likely stimulated by contact with Caesar's expeditionary forces rather than preceding them. This particular type sits early in their sequence, before the tribe began adding inscribed names of rulers, which means attribution to any specific leader remains impossible.

The "proto" classification reflects its position in a developmental typology, not a judgment of crudity.
