From the KJG Collection of British Celtic Coins. Ex Rudd 117 (May 2011), 32; P. Courte Collection..
The speared-boar on the obverse derives from the Roman denarii of C. Hosidius C.f. Geta (Crawford 407/2). John Hooker has argued that the spear on similar Proto Boar types of the Corieltavi may represent and ""sun-scepter"" (see Celtic Improvisations: An Art Historical Analysis of Coriosolite Coins, BAR 2002: 60-1), and if this is correct it may have a similar significance here
