Coin of the week This Cunobelin Classic Crescent gold stater is a new type, previously unpublished. It is not only the rarest Cunobelin stater we've had (no others recorded). It is also one of the loveliest - delightfully designed, exquisitely engraved and in minty-fresh condition. "A quite extraordinary coin," declares Dr Philip de Jersey. "Even as we approach 900 recorded examples of Cunobelin's gold, coins like this retain the capacity to provoke amazement and surprise."
