The reverse, which is from the same die as a coin in the Norwich Castle Museum (SCBI 26,1118) reads MANTICEN MO NORPC. There are eight coins of Manticen in this type in the EMC/SCBI database, but they are all in the museums and this is the first find recorded in EMC."Dimensions: diameter: 21.45mm; weight: 1.39g.
