| Beschrijving voorzijde | Radiate, draped bust of Tetricus I facing right, rendered in the crude, abbreviated style characteristic of barbarous radiate imitations. The legend, partially legible due to the irregular flan and coarse die-cutting, reads IMP TETRICVS PF AVG around the periphery, though letterforms are noticeably debased and unevenly spaced. The radiate crown is rendered with splayed points above the head. The portrait, while retaining the general iconographic conventions of official Gallic Empire coinage, displays the schematic, almost provincial quality typical of unofficial imitative production. |

Tetricus I ruled the Gallic Empire from 271 until its reabsorption into the Roman Empire under Aurelian in 274 — and the proliferation of barbarous radiates imitating his coinage accelerated dramatically in those final years, likely because official supply collapsed as the central authority disintegrated. These unofficial copies were struck across northwestern Gaul and Britain by parties unknown, ranging from organized workshops to opportunistic local operations, and circulated freely because there was simply nothing better available.
The TVTELA AVG reverse type was itself copied obsessively by barbarous producers, making attribution to specific imitative workshops nearly impossible without die-link studies.
