Title

English: British Coins

Description

English: A depiction of the obverse and reverse of an Epaticcus gold stater—known as the Corn Ear Warrior type from the British use of 'corn' to describe wheat and grain generally—from the figures decorating the margins of Moll's map of Hertfordshire, sold separately and as Map 18 in his Set of Fifty New and Correct Maps of England and Wales...

The illustration derives from figure 9 of Tabula I Nummi Britannici on Page 87 of William Camden's Britannia, Vol. I. Its note states "The ninth; wherein one on horse-back with a spear and shield; and CAERATIC in letters scattered: from which I should guess it to have been one of that warlike Caratacus, so much commended by Tacitus."

Notes:
Obverse: TASCIE [sic for the actual coin's TASCI F, Tasciovani Filius, son of Tasciovanus]
Reverse: EC ARARTIC [sic for Camden's CEARATIC and the actual coin's EPATICCV or EPATICCVS, Epaticcus]
London: Sold by H. Moll over-against Devereux-Court in the Strand; Tho. Bowles, Print and Map-Seller near the Chapter-House in St. Paul's Church-Yard, and J. Bowles Print and Map-Seller over-against Stocks-Market. 1724.

(Reusing this file)

This file might NOT be in the public domain.

It was previously considered to be in the public domain because it is a scan (or similar) by the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, but not everything scanned by the BNF is automatically in the public domain.

It is possible that this file is in the public domain for other reasons, for example because it was published a long time ago (anything before ca. 1900 is most likely ok) or because its author / artist / photographer died over 70 years ago and it was published over 95 years ago. In such cases, a new rationale should be applied, and a different license tag (see Commons:Licensing and valid license tags at Commons:Copyright tags) should be used.

If the file is not found to be in the public domain, it might be nominated for deletion (NOT by any automatic process, but manually).

See below for the previous rationale (not applicable anymore).
