Aanvullende informatie

The Cantii occupied the territory of modern Kent — the first landfall for Caesar's expeditions of 55 and 54 BC — and this coin's trophy motif almost certainly derives from direct exposure to Roman iconography during those campaigns. Whether that borrowing was voluntary emulation or the result of coinage deliberately modeled on Roman prestige symbols to facilitate trade and diplomacy remains debated. The Cantii were among the tribes that submitted to Caesar in 54 BC, and their subsequent coinage reflects that unusually close contact with Roman material culture.
