Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Clacton type 1 Stater is that it features a unique combination of Celtic and Roman influences in its design. The coin's obverse (front) side depicts a stylized horse, which is a common motif in Celtic art, while the reverse (back) side bears a stylized image of a Roman warship, indicating the cultural exchange and influence of the Roman Empire on the Celts during that time period.
