| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylised and abstracted head of a stork facing left, rendered in the characteristic La Tène Celtic tradition. The design is composed of bold, sweeping lines suggesting the elongated bill and rounded cranium of the bird, with minimal but confident engraving strokes. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, as typical of hand-struck Celtic silver units. The field is otherwise plain, with no inscription or border. The overall composition reflects the idiosyncratic artistic vocabulary of the Corieltauvi die-engravers. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Corieltauvi occupied a territory roughly corresponding to modern Lincolnshire and Leicestershire, and their coinage developed largely in isolation from the more southerly Belgic tribes — producing a distinctive regional tradition of abstract, fragmented designs that diverged sharply from continental Gaulish prototypes. The South Ferriby series in particular represents one of the more localised subtypes within Corieltauvian silver, named for the North Lincolnshire findspot cluster near the Humber estuary where specimens concentrate heavily.
