1/4 Stater Double Torc

The Cantii occupied the territory of modern Kent — the primary crossing point between Britain and Gaul — and their coinage reflects sustained contact with continental Gaulish types rather than the more abstracted traditions developing further inland. ABC 210 is among the smaller fractional gold issues of the tribe, likely functioning in high-value exchange rather than everyday transaction. Coins of this type have been recovered predominantly through metal detector finds in Kent, with several recorded through the Portable Antiquities Scheme in the decades following the 1996 Treasure Act.
