MetDet71 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1315 Posts	Posted 11/28/2022 11:03 am Got the id covered on this one, from the seller. Just wanted to share my latest addition Durotriges, Uninscribed Coinage C. 50 BC - AD 50. Silver Stater, 'Cranborne Chase' type. OBV:- Abstract laureate head of Apollo right. Reverse:- Disjointed horse facing left, rectangular head, body of crescents, pellet below, twelve pellets above. ABC 2157. 19 mm and weight is 4.8 grams. Again, apologies for the poor pictures.

MetDet71 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1315 Posts	Posted 11/28/2022 11:30 am Quote: Had to work a bit to see the horse I am with you on that one, although this type is listed in ABC as being common, it's one of the best coins in my Celtic (small collection) of coins. I love the pellets on this one, been handling it all morning lol. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 26100 Posts	Posted 11/28/2022 9:27 pm Really nice addition to your Celtic collection @met. It seems like some of the design is off flan—as if this was undersized compared with the dies.

Palouche Pillar of the Community Spain 2681 Posts	Posted 11/29/2022 5:18 pm Really nice example...Well struck I always struggle with the "laureate head of Apollo right." Report this Post to the Staff
ttkoo Pillar of the Community Australia 674 Posts	Posted 11/29/2022 7:24 pm Quote: I always struggle with the "laureate head of Apollo right. If I rotate the coin 90 deg anti clockwise I see an abstract face with ears, eyes, nose/mouth and beaded beard below. But laureate head of Apollo?.... nope! Still a great example! The Ox moves slowly, but the Earth is patient. Edited by ttkoo 11/29/2022 7:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Here's a pic that I saved to my PC years ago...can't remember the source. It attempts to explain, visually, the derivation (transformation through earlier issues) of each motif.
