Philip de Jersey, Cunobelin's Silver, Britannia, Vol. 32 (2001), pp. 1-44:
de Jersey Type A (Early Type). de Jersey lists four types, listed separately here, which are stylistically earlier. This coin is A1:
A1: CAMVL in panel, dolphins above and below, inside wreath. Centaur left; CVNO below (this coin).
A2: Two coiled ram-headed serpents. Horse left, B behind; CVNO in exergue (see ABC 2831).
A3: Coiled ram-headed serpent. Pegasus left; CVN below (see ABC 2834).
A4: Lozenge with bucrania and ram's heads at corners. Horse left, palm branch above; CVNO below (see ABC 2837).

Styled as son of Tasciovanus on some of his coins, Cunobelin appears to have ruled over the unified territories of the Trinovantes and Catuvellauni, with additional territory in Kent. It has been estimated from a study of known dies that around one million of his gold corn ear staters were produced and his main centre and mint was at Camulodunon/Camulodunum (Colchester).
