provenance
Bt. Vosper, May 2004
This reverse die was cut by the same hand as for ABC 2801. A unique departure from the styles usually associated with Cunobelin's gold coinage, these issues are much more Roman in style and give a real sense of musculature to the horse.
Estimate: £1,000.00 - £1,500.00
