Title
231b BERK-E34D72: Reverse of silver Unit or Stater
Description
English: An incomplete Iron Age silver unit of the Berkshire 'Abingdon zoo' type, a variation of ABC 1004 (horse right). The obverse is similar to both ABC 1001 and 1004 but the bottom design is of a horse advancing left with its head turned and looking over its back, similar to de Jersey's Type A. One other example of this same coin is recorded from Blewbury, Oxfordshire as CCI 95.3389 and discussed in de Jersey 1998, illustrated as figure 2f. On the Blewbury coin the reverse is clearer and comprises paired animals, including stylized horses or deer with beaded manes and upcurving tails facing each other, with other animals beneath; the Letcombe Bassett coin shows these lower animals to be horses.
