| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylised and abstracted rendering of the head of Apollo facing right, executed in the Celtic La Tène artistic tradition. The facial features are deeply suppressed and largely concealed within the swirling decorative elements, with the wreath reduced to a series of curved lenticular leaves radiating from the crown. Pellet ornaments punctuate the field, and bold curvilinear forms dominate the composition in place of naturalistic portraiture. The entire design is rendered in high relief characteristic of hammered Celtic coinage, with no inscriptions or border elements present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Atrebates occupied territory across both sides of the Channel during this period, and the tribal coinage of this decade reflects direct contact with Caesar's Gallic campaigns — not just culturally but politically. Caesar's two expeditions into Britain (55 and 54 BC) forced southern tribal leaders into uneasy client relationships with Rome, and the acceleration of coin production among the Atrebates around this time is likely tied to tribute obligations and inter-tribal diplomacy rather than purely commercial exchange.
The Bognor findspot concentration for this type suggests highly localised circulation around what is now the West Sussex coast.
