The British Da1 “Curdridge” stater sits between the British B “Chute” and the British Db1 “Cheriton” staters, and is known in “ABC” as the Chute/Cheriton Transitional type. It is similar to the Chute (see 5), but it has started to take on the “Axe Head” on the obverse and the elongated neck on the reverse which are features of the following Cheriton Smiler staters (see 59).
This was one of the last staters minted by the Belgae (or more likely an unknown tribe no longer in the historical record) before they dissapeared.
This coin is class 1d, and although 36 coins are listed in “Divided Kingdoms”, 18 of them are in the British Museum. This coin is obverse 14, reverse 10, one of only four coins known with this die pair.
