Description: | A copper-alloy core from a plated forgery of an Iron Age gold stater. This coin is a copy of an Early Uninscribed British 'B', or 'Chute', type, a close parallel being British Museum no. 30 (Hobbs 1996: 48/Pl. 2). The coin is slightly worn and corroded around the edges, but otherwise survives in good condition. None of the original gold plating remains. It measures 17.6mm in diameter, 2.6mm thick and weighs 3.68g.
