| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylised and abstracted head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the characteristic Celtic La Tène artistic tradition. The facial features are dissolved into a series of bold curvilinear forms, crescents, and geometric elements distributed across the flan. No legend or inscription appears in the field, consistent with the uninscribed coinage of the Corieltauvi. The design is derived ultimately from Macedonian gold stater prototypes but is thoroughly transformed into a distinctly British Iron Age idiom. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Disjointed horse advancing left, its body fragmented into stylised curvilinear components in typical late British Iron Age fashion. An anchor-shaped motif and a scattering of pellets appear above the horse, while a star or wheel symbol is depicted below. The composition fills the irregular flan with bold, confident forms characteristic of Corieltauvian die-cutting, with no inscribed legend present in the field or exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Corieltauvi occupied a broad territory across what is now Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, and Leicestershire, and their coinage developed later and more slowly than that of the southern tribes with closer continental contact. The 'D' classification within this series reflects a typological grouping established by numismatists to track the gradual abstraction of the original Macedonian stater prototype — a process so advanced by this stage that the design's origins are almost unrecognizable without knowing where to look.
No named ruler appears on this issue, which distinguishes the Corieltauvi from contemporaries like the Catuvellauni. Whether this reflects collective tribal governance or simply a different political tradition remains unresolved.
