Description: | A complete Iron Age silver uninscribed unit, dating to c. 60-20 BC. This type seems to be largely distributed in Southern England. The variant is known as the 'Chichester boar' type and is noted in Rudd, Ancient British Coins (2010) p53. The obverse depicts a diademed head facing right with flame like hair. There are several circular features to the right of the face. The reverse depicts a triple tailed horse with a human head above; between the two and the edge of the coin there is a circle. A boar is depicted beneath the horse. For a close parallel, cf. Ancient British Coins (ABC) No.644. The coin dates between 60-20 BC. ABC 644; VA unknown; BMC 577.
