Description: | Copper alloy Iron Age stater. South Western (Durotriges) uninscribed type. These coins were in production from the mid 1st century BC, probably into the 1st century AD and appear to have continued to be in use well into the middle of this century (Hobbs 1996, 24). So called 'struck bronzes' such as this one probably represent the very debased end of the struck silver series and analysis indicates that they often still contain a very small amount of silver (ibid.)Diameter: 20.05mm, Thickness: 3.50mm, Weight: 2.55g. Registered as CCI 10.1090.
