| Additional information |
The Atrebates occupied territory spanning what is now Hampshire and Berkshire, with tribal connections running directly to the Atrebates of Belgic Gaul — Caesar's campaigns in the 50s BC almost certainly disrupted trade networks that had sustained coinage production across the Channel. The Curdridge type takes its name from a hoard findspot in Hampshire, a naming convention common to uninscribed Celtic issues where the issuing authority cannot be confirmed from the coin itself.
