Chris Rudd (ABC) ‘Plastic No Branch’. Sills notes that it die links with Wild B (ABC 2780) and is not in the Plastic series, despite having a neat pellet mane.

Sills DK 558 (1 obverse, 2 reverse dies): North Thames Coinage; Type: Cunobelinus; Staters: Class 4 - No Branch. The No Branch comes from Wild A (such as ABC 2777) but is not stylistically similar to the quarters and sits adjacent to AGR (ABC 2999), which Sills suggests might be due to the disappearance of Agr.

Sills chronology: Gallo-Belgic Ca - British G (Early Clacton) / Aa Westerham - British La (Whaddon Chase) - British Lb (Westbury) - Addedomaros - Dubnovellaunos - Tasciovanos - Cunobelinus (Biga - Linear - Wild - Plastic - Classic).
