| Beschrijving keerzijde | Blundered and schematically rendered figure of an uncertain deity standing left, depicted in a highly stylized barbarous manner with outstretched arms, likely imitating Hilaritas, Laetitia, or a similar personification from the Gallic Empire prototype coinage. The figure's attributes are indistinct due to the crude die engraving. A garbled and partially legible Latin legend is present in the surrounding field, corrupted from the original imperial reverse type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Barbarous radiates are unofficial imitations of Gallic Empire antoniniani, produced in enormous quantities across Britain and northern Gaul during the 270s and into the early 280s. After Aurelian reunified the empire and the legitimate minting apparatus withdrew, a vacuum of small change persisted for years — local workshops, some barely more than makeshift operations, filled it with these crude copies. Tetricus I, the last ruler of the Gallic breakaway, was a particularly common prototype precisely because his coins were still circulating when the copying began.
At 0.83g, this piece sits at the lighter end of the spectrum, consistent with progressive debasement through successive generations of copying.
