Description |
English: A depiction of the obverse and reverse of a silver British coin from the figures decorating the margins of Moll's map of Gloucestershire, sold separately and as Map 14 in his Set of Fifty New and Correct Maps of England and Wales... The illustration derives from figure 16 of Tabula I Nummi Britannici on Page 87 of William Camden's Britannia, Vol. I. Camden's English text for the coin reads "The 16th with a horse, and ORCETI." This is generally assumed to have been a mint mark for a British town but sometimes connected to an agricultural Celtic goddess assumed equivalent to Ceres or to her sanctuary.
