| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central kite-shaped or lozengiform panel formed by two intersecting straight lines dividing the field into quadrants, with pellets filling the upper compartments — four pellets in the principal variety (VA 825-01). A bold crescent or lunate motif occupies the left field, accompanied by additional subsidiary crescents and pellet groupings distributed across the field in a dynamic Celtic arrangement. A large boss or pellet-in-annulet device appears in the lower central field, consistent with the Corieltauvian decorative vocabulary. The design is entirely aniconic and uninscribed, typical of this tribe's coinage, with the kite motif serving as the principal identifying type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Corieltauvi occupied a substantial territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire, and their coinage is unusual among British Celtic issues for showing evidence of joint rulership — several types carry paired names, suggesting a tribal governance structure without parallel elsewhere in Iron Age Britain. The "Kite" designation is a modern typological nickname derived from the coin's distinctive spreading flan shape, not an ancient term.
ABC 1761 falls within the late Corieltavian sequence, produced in the final decades before Roman conquest fundamentally disrupted indigenous minting.
