"South Ferriby" type; BMC 3146-3179; Mack 449-50Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Corieltauvian D coin is that it features a unique blend of Celtic and Roman influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a Celtic warrior, while the reverse side features a Roman-style eagle, highlighting the cultural exchange and fusion that occurred during the period of Roman rule in Britain.
