Quarter stater of the Belgae

This Ancient British gold coin was unearthed by Gay Meeham. It’s a quarter stater of the Belgae and has been identified as number 773 in Ancient British Coins.

On the obverse s is a wreath motif forming a hidden face. On the reverse there is a horse facing right with a wheel above and below, pellets in the field and a ring below the tail. The type is very rare and is not listed in the Standard Catalogue.

Valuation

The obverse would grade Fine, the reverse about VF but there is a fairly large edge chip, which detracts from its overall appearance. In its present state of preservation a likely pre-sale auction estimate would be £250.
