| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised triple-tailed horse leaping to the left, rendered in the highly abstracted manner typical of Belgic Celtic coinage of southern Britain. The body of the horse is depicted with bold, deeply cut lines, the three tail filaments splaying outward behind. A small spoked wheel symbol is placed above the horse in the upper field, serving as a diagnostic control mark for this type. The field is otherwise plain, with no inscription or additional symbols. The irregular flan edges and variable flan thickness are consistent with hand-struck production of the mid-1st century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Atrebates occupied territory straddling what is now Hampshire and Berkshire, and their coinage emerged in direct response to Julius Caesar's British expeditions of 55 and 54 BC — contact with Roman Gaul accelerating the shift from uninscribed abstract coinage toward more politically self-conscious issues. The "Tadley Wheel" type takes its name from the Hampshire village where a significant concentration of finds has been recorded, suggesting localised production or redistribution rather than wide circulation.
ABC 806 is among the smaller fractional denominations in the Atrebatic series, and surviving examples frequently show flan irregularity from the casting process used before striking.
