| Reverse description | A dynamic Celtic-style horse rearing to the left dominates the reverse field, rendered in the vigorous, stylised manner characteristic of Late Iron Age British coinage. A rider or jockey figure is depicted above the horse's back, shown in a schematic, abstracted form typical of Atrebatic coinage of this period. Pellets and decorative elements are scattered around the horse in the field, and a horizontal ground line appears beneath the composition. The abbreviated legend VI, an abbreviation of VERICA, appears in the field, identifying the issuing ruler. The overall design is executed in high relief with bold, confident die-cutting. |
