The Corieltauvi tribe occupied modern day Lincolnshire and parts of adjoining Yorkshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire. With an extensive series of inscribed and uninscribed coins in both gold and silver this makes for a very interesting series to collect.
The Scyphate gold quarter staters are worthy of mention, very thin and deeply dished with no parallel in the rest of the Iron Age series, presumably a very localised issue but why?

Some of the later inscribed staters bear long and wonderful names, there is some suggestion that these may be the names of two individuals, perhaps joint kings or the introduction of moneyers displayed on coins. ‘Volisios Domnovellaunos’ is my favourite, it puts our modern day names to shame, ‘Bob’ not quite having the same ring.

Cantii

The Cantii Tribe occupied a similar area to that of modern day Kent, the name of which very probably deriving from ‘Cantii’. Julius Caesar considered the South-east corner of Britain to be the most civilised, if we look at the series of Potins which were in production at the time (few other tribes had started to produce coins at this early point) then it would suggest this to be true.
Other tribes must have quickly caught up and overtaken as the later series of coinage in Kent is rather minimal, Vosenos, Sam & Amminus only known by a handful of coins.

Atrebates & Regini

The Atrebates were perhaps one of the most successful tribes in Britian during the Iron Age, their territories appear to have been a peaceful place until the departure of Verica in AD 42 prompting the Claudian invasion the following year.
From the natural border that is the river Thames in the North all the way down to the south coast including the Isle of Wight which would have been connected to the mainland in those days the people of the Atrebates tribe lived in and farmed a fertile, peaceful land with great success shown by the diversity of coinage. Silchester (Calleva) is thought to have been the capital of the Atrebates, a good contender as it is mentioned on both gold and silver coins of Eppillus.
The Regini were a sub tribe occupying land close to the south coast, possibly centered around Chichester and must have had a good relationship with their much larger neighbour as they lived side by side for many years.

The Tarrant Gunville Hoard: In July of 2022, a metal-detectorist in the east Dorset parish of Tarrant Gunville recovered an important hoard of Iron Age coins. Numbering 31 pieces in total, mostly gold Chute type staters from the Belgae tribes but also containing some Silver Durotrigian coins highlighting the mixing of Iron age coin types. With no interest to acquire the hoard forthcoming from either local or national museums, it was subsequently disclaimed and returned to the finder who contacted us.
We have produced an information booklet, a copy of this will be sent with each coin and is also available online here. A detailed catalogue can also be viewed on the Portable Antiquities website here.

A rare & exciting opportunity to own a coin from a fully provenanced and researched treasure find.
