Celtic Coinage. Britain. The Catuvellauni/Trinovantes. Cunobelin. Classic type. Gold Stater (5.46 g, 16 mm). Early-mid 1st century AD. [C]A—MV, grain ear. Reverse: CVNO, horse galloping right, leaf in field above, pellet below leaf. CCI 73.0341 (these dies). Cf. Hobbs 1828, Cf. Van Arsdell 2025-1, Cf. Spink 288 (all without pellet below leaf). Struck from same obverse die as previous lot. Extremely Fine. A rare reverse die variant. Whether simply ornamentation or some sort of privy mark, the pellet below the leaf is a fixture of most of the Cunobelin staters of the grain ear/horse variety. It is, however, normally absent from the version with the most Romanized depiction of the horse, the so-called "Classic" type. The present specimen provides a rare exception. Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000. Categories: The Cernnunos Collection
