| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central design featuring a latticed square motif flanked by two opposed crescents, with a projecting branch element extending above and below the central field. A pellet-in-ring ornament is positioned to each side of the central motif. The design is rendered in the abstracted Celtic artistic tradition characteristic of Icenian coinage, with no legend or inscription present. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised horse advancing to the right with an open or disjointed head, rendered in the abstract Celtic artistic style typical of Icenian quarter staters. Above the horse, an outline crescent and two ring ornaments are depicted in the field. A pellet-in-ring motif occupies the space below the horse. The composition is aniconic in character, with no legend or inscription, and the design elements are arranged in a dispersed, symbolic arrangement. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Iceni occupied what is now Norfolk and Suffolk, and their coinage tradition developed largely independent of the Gallo-Belgic imports that shaped much of southern British numismatics. The Irstead type takes its name from the Norfolk parish where a significant concentration of finds has been recorded, suggesting either a local production centre or a pattern of ritual deposition.
At 1.06 g, these quarter staters represent the fractional end of Icenian gold — coins struck for transactions well below the prestige economy of the full stater.
