| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised tree-like trophy motif occupies the upper portion of the field, rendered with splayed branches in the abstract Celtic artistic tradition derived from earlier Macedonian stater prototypes. A wavy or undulating bar flanks each side of the central trophy device, extending horizontally across the field. In the lower portion of the field, a single concentric ringed annulet is positioned centrally beneath the trophy, accompanied by additional smaller annulets and pellets arranged along a wavy baseline. The overall composition is highly stylised and non-figurative, consistent with the late Iron Age Regni coinage of southern Britain. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Atrebates occupied a territory stretching across modern Hampshire, West Sussex, and Berkshire, and their coinage tradition derived ultimately from Macedonian gold staters that circulated into Gaul through trade and mercenary payment. By the time fractional denominations like this quarter stater were struck, the original Hellenistic prototype had been abstracted through generations of copying until only geometric echoes remained. The Aldingbourne find-spot in West Sussex places this type squarely within the southern Atrebatic heartland.
ABC 542 is distinguished by its annulet field decoration — a minor but diagnostically useful detail for attributing die groups within what is otherwise a visually fluid coinage tradition.
