| Reversbeschreibung | A stylised Celtic horse prances to the right across the centre of the flan, rendered in the abstract La Tène manner with exaggerated limbs and a curved, arching body. Above the horse's back is a large spoked wheel with a central pellet, one of the three wheel motifs that define this type. Beneath the horse's body appears a second, smaller spoked wheel or ring ornament, also with a central boss. Additional pellets and curvilinear decorative elements fill the remaining field. The design is uninscribed and struck on an irregularly shaped hammered flan typical of British Celtic coinage of this period. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Dobunni occupied a territory centered on the modern Cotswolds and Severn Valley, and their coinage developed under strong influence from the Gallo-Belgic series imported across the Channel — a tradition of abstract gold stater design that had been degrading stylistically from a Macedonian prototype for over a century by the time this quarter stater was struck. The fractional denominations were almost certainly used in high-value exchange between tribal elites rather than everyday commerce.
The "East Wiltshire" classification reflects a findspot distribution that clusters distinctly away from the Dobunni heartland, suggesting either a peripheral minting authority or deliberate distribution into border territories during the decades of increasing pressure from Caesar's Gallic campaigns.
