Silver Unit Waveney Diadem / Bury Diadem Right

The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, and their silver coinage emerged relatively late among British tribes — likely prompted by contact with Gaulish trading networks rather than any direct Roman influence. This particular type, associated with the Waveney and Bury diadem series, belongs to a phase of Icenian production that numismatists believe preceded the Roman conquest by only a generation or two, meaning examples may have still been in circulation when Boudicca led her revolt in 60–61 AD.

Van Arsdell's die studies suggest limited production runs for this variant.
