Notes on an ancient British Gold Coin, inscribed 'Bodvoc.'

Abstract

This article discusses a gold coin found in Dumfries and Galloway. The author argues that this coin supports the argument that coinage was used in Britain before the arrival of the Romans. He also agrees with another commenter who suggests that coins inscribed with the name ‘Bodvoc’ were likely struck in the west of England, possibly by the Boduni tribe in Gloucestershire. There is some uncertainty as to the when the coin might have been struck.
