| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stylised Celtic horse or boar depicted in profile, rendered in the abstract curvilinear tradition characteristic of late Corieltauvian coinage. Above the animal, a row of pellets forms an arc along the upper field, while additional decorative pellets and linear ornaments fill the surrounding space. Below the animal, the divided legend DVM N-OCO-VE, representing the name Dumnocoveros, is distributed across the lower field in Celtic-influenced Latin lettering. The composition reflects the degenerate artistic conventions of the late Iron Age tribal mint, with the zoomorphic figure reduced to bold, schematic strokes against a heavily textured flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Volisios appears across several Corieltauvi coin series paired with different names — Dumnocoveros, Cartivel, and Dumnovellauno — suggesting a senior ruler issuing jointly with subordinates or co-regents, a governance arrangement with no parallel elsewhere in British Celtic coinage. Whether these pairings reflect dynastic succession, shared authority, or a deliberate legitimizing strategy remains unresolved. The tribe occupied the East Midlands, and their mint output continued close enough to the Claudian invasion of 43 AD that some issues may have been struck while Roman forces were already moving inland.
