| Beschrijving voorzijde | Abstract geometric design in the late Celtic tradition, featuring a prominent diagonal spike or large Y-form dividing the field. Groups of three pellets are arranged to either side of the spike. Two crescent forms appear in the lower portion of the flan, characteristic of Durotrigan abstract imagery derived from earlier Gallo-Belgic prototypes. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Durotriges occupied a stretch of what is now Dorset and Somerset, and Hengistbury Head functioned as one of the most active cross-Channel trading ports in pre-Roman Britain — receiving wine amphorae, figs, and glass from Gaul and the Mediterranean well into the late Iron Age. That trade collapsed sharply after Caesar's Gallic campaigns disrupted continental networks, and the tribe's coinage simultaneously underwent a striking debasement from gold to silver to bronze over roughly a century, this unit representing the final, fully bronze stage of that descent.
