| Beschrijving keerzijde | A horizontal bar divides the field at centre, serving as the primary geometric axis of the design. Above the bar, an anemone or pellet-and-ring floral motif is placed, accompanied by a right-angled bar extending to the right. Below and to the right, a Y-form element with a sloping orientation is paired with a vertical bar positioned to its left, all rendered in the highly stylised, abstract geometric vocabulary characteristic of late Iron Age Celtic coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Carn Brea type takes its name from the Iron Age hillfort in Cornwall, though the Atrebates and Regini were concentrated further east across Hampshire and Sussex — the find-spot distribution of this quarter stater type tells a complicated story about tribal exchange networks and long-distance movement of high-value coin in the decades immediately surrounding Caesar's two British expeditions of 55 and 54 BC. Whether that military pressure accelerated or disrupted local gold coinage output remains an open question among Celtic numismatists. Sills 148 and 149 represent distinct die groupings within the type.
