| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised horse advancing to the right, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner characteristic of the Clacton quarter stater series. A pellet-in-arc motif issues from the rump of the horse, a diagnostic feature of this type. Multiple pellets are scattered throughout the field above, below, and around the horse, with crescent-shaped decorative elements visible to the left. A large isolated pellet appears in the lower central field. A hatched or linear element occupies the exergual area beneath the horse. No inscription or legend is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Clacton-type quarter stater belongs to a regional coinage tradition derived from Gallo-Belgic prototypes that entered Britain through cross-Channel trade and migration in the late Iron Age. Over successive generations of copying, the original Macedonian stater imagery was so thoroughly abstracted that the connection to its source is now traceable only through careful die study. The ABC 2350 classification places this piece within a well-documented Essex production group associated with the Trinovantes, the same tribe that later allied with Julius Caesar against Cassivellaunus during his 54 BC incursion — a political relationship that may explain the relative prosperity of coinage output in this region during the following decades.
