| 背面描述 | A triple-tailed horse advancing to the left, rendered in the stylised La Tène artistic tradition characteristic of Dobunnic Celtic coinage. A collar is depicted around the horse's neck and a strap around its belly. Above the horse, a floral solar symbol — the so-called dahlia motif — occupies the upper field, while a cogwheel device appears below the horse in the lower field, serving as a ground ornament. |

The Dobunni occupied the Severn Valley and Cotswolds region, and their coinage developed largely independent of the Kentish and Thames estuary tribes who had earlier adopted Gaulish prototypes. This quarter stater type belongs to a tradition of fractional gold that served local exchange needs at a period when Julius Caesar's two expeditions to Britain — 55 and 54 BC — were actively disrupting tribal trade networks and political alliances across the southeast, pressures that rippled well inland.
The abstract, heavily stylized treatment characteristic of this series is not artistic decline from classical prototypes but a deliberate regional idiom. ABC 2109 is among the scarcer Dobunnic fractions; the tribe's heartland around Bagendon has produced the densest findspot concentrations.
