Two known, found near Bury St Edmunds (see CCI 17.0308).
Talbot: Bury G. Bury D, E, F, G, Large Flan B (I, II, III) and D and Spiral were issued contemporaneously in small quantities in a period of local production. Bury D (from Snettisham) and F were early, the diamond suggesting a relationship with Large Flan A. Bury G (from Bury St Edmunds) was also likely early, as was Spiral. Bury E has two different styles of die. Large Flan B (from around Fincham) has hollow stars like later Large Flan A and stylistic links to Large Flan C and are possibly contemporaneous. Large Flan D (from the Fens) has the open horse's head of the earlier period but is derived from Large Flan A and is later.
Talbot Chronology: Gallo-Belgic E/Ingoldisthorpe - Early Local Period I (55BC-35BC) - Early Local Period II (35BC-15BC) - Denominational Period I (15BC-5: Snettisham - Plouviez - Irstead - Early Boar Horse) - Denominational Period II (5-25: Boar Horse B - Boar Horse C) - Denominational Period III (25-45).
