| 裏面の説明 | A stylised horse leaping to the right, rendered in the dynamic, fragmented manner characteristic of late British Iron Age coinage. Above the horse, the legend TAXCIAVAN is disposed in Latin letters across the upper field, identifying the issuing ruler Tasciovanus. A bucranium (ox skull) accompanied by an annulet, enclosed within a ring of pellets, appears above the horse's back, serving as a distinctive control symbol of the 'Trinovantian M' series. A hook-like or curved object is placed beneath the horse in the lower field. The reverse composition is executed with confident die-cutting, combining royal titulature with complex iconographic symbols characteristic of the Catuvellaunian mint tradition. |

Tasciovanus ruled the Catuvellauni from a base at Verulamium — modern St Albans — and was among the first British tribal rulers to place his name on coinage, a practice borrowed directly from Gaulish contacts across the Channel. The 'M' series designation groups a cluster of issues distinguished by die-linking patterns rather than any single mint mark, and the attribution to Tasciovanus rests largely on find-spot distribution concentrated in Hertfordshire and Essex.
The Trinovantes, neighbours and sometime rivals to the Catuvellauni, likely fell under Tasciovanian dominance during this period — which complicates any clean attribution of findspot evidence to a single issuing authority.
