No 672: Verica Galley Silver Unit

No 672: Verica Galley Silver Unit:  This Verica Galley silver unit is a comparatively new

type, unpublished by any major catalogue and excessively rare. There is only one other

example recorded and this is easily the better of the two. Dr John Creighton, in Coins

and Power in Late Iron Age Britain (2000) illustrates the obverse of the other example

and comments that the ship’s prow was the classic symbol of a naval victory, an image

which multiplied in its use following Octavian’s victory at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC.
