Beschrijving voorzijde Decorated wreath motif fills the entire field in bold Celtic curvilinear style, with prominent raised volutes and pellet clusters arranged symmetrically. Additional stylised leaves radiate from each side of the central axis, converging to form a circular arrangement at the centre. A large pellet-in-ring ornament is prominently positioned to the right of centre, rendered in high relief. The overall composition is characteristic of late Corieltauvian abstract die-work, with no figural or inscribed elements on this face.

Aanvullende informatie

The Corieltauvi occupied a broad territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire, and their coinage is unusual among British Celtic issues for regularly carrying paired names — likely magistrates or co-rulers rather than kings in the continental sense. Vepo is one of the more obscure names in the Corieltauvi sequence, appearing only on a handful of types in the final decades before the Roman conquest of 43 AD effectively ended native coin production in the region.

The "ring pellet" designation identifies a specific reverse arrangement used as a die-variety classifier within this series, not a design feature unique to this issuer.
