Description: | This coin is probably a gold quarter stater of Cunobelin. it is just possible to see a horse facing right, with a branch above on one side, and perhaps an ear of corn on the other. It weighs 1.29g and has a diamter of 11.9mm and is 2.14mm thick.
The coin is in very poor condition, and it is suggested by Philip de Jersey that it has been made with very debased gold or may even be a contemporary Iron Age forgery. It is impossible to give an exact type. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Caroline McDonald | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
