| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uninscribed plain convex field, entirely blank, characteristic of the Celtic stater tradition derived from Macedonian prototypes in which the obverse laurel wreath motif has been progressively abstracted into an undecorated, slightly domed surface. The flan is irregular in outline with natural fissures and surface irregularities typical of hammered Celtic gold coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cantii occupied the territory of modern Kent — the principal landing zone for Caesar's expeditions of 55 and 54 BC. The political disruption that followed Roman contact, including the imposition of tribute and the fragmentation of tribal authority described by Caesar himself, almost certainly drove the proliferation of fractional gold issues among southeastern tribes during this period. Quarter staters served real transactional needs in a region now navigating Roman commercial pressure alongside traditional inter-tribal exchange.
The "Allen's Man" designation references Derek Allen's foundational typological work on British Celtic coinage. The Sp#47 variety notation signals a die or structural deviation from the core type.
