Ancient British coins have been added to our extensive fixed price inventory today, including this beautiful gold stater of Tasciovanus showing one of the iconic symbols of the Ancient Brits, the Carnyx.
This ancient war trumpet is being paraded by Tasciovanos himself astride his trusty steed. This example well centred and with clear detail on both sides, the obverse displays hidden faces amongst the elaborate design.

At Silbury coins we have specialised in Ancient British Coinage for over 20 years and are always happy to share this experience and the enjoyment gaining in handling these coins with our clients.
Today’s upload consists of choice English silver coins, beginning with pennies from the kingdom of Wessex, Aethelstan, Eadred and the late Saxon kings. Both William I & II (Rufus) are represented then we skip to Tudor rarities including a clear Boars head penny of Richard III, wonderful portrait of Henry VII and a run of Newark siege pieces.
There is so much history represented in this tray!
