Today we have added a small selection of Ancient British coinage from a variety of tribes across Britain.

The star coin has to be this magnificent BODVOC stater from the Dobunni tribe. Crisply struck in pale yellow gold, displaying a full triple tailed horse with face above and wheel below, seldom are gold staters as well struck as this.

Found nearly 30 years ago near the pretty village of Wroughton, Wiltshire in the southernmost region ruled by the Dobunni from their capital in Cirencester, which just so happens to be the location of Silbury HQ.

The next leg of this coin’s story is as yet unknown but it hasn’t travelled far in its 2000 year life span so far!

Todays upload also contains coins from the Atrebates, Durotriges, Catuvellauni tribes and more.
