| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised horse in profile facing right, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner characteristic of southern British Iron Age coinage. The horse's body is rendered with a large, rounded pellet forming the belly, with curved limb lines extending beneath. Above the horse, a lunate or crescent motif with pellet infill decorates the upper field, while a bulrush or plant symbol appears to the left. Below the horse, a prominent wheel or solar rosette motif with radiating spokes occupies the lower field, accompanied by a stepped exergual line. A pellet-in-annulet ornament appears to the right of the horse, and further decorative fill elements complete the composition in characteristic Atrebatic quarter stater style. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Atrebates and Regini occupied territory roughly corresponding to modern Hampshire, West Sussex, and Berkshire — a zone of intense contact with Gaulish traders and, later, Caesar's campaigns across the Channel. The quarter stater denomination circulated as a practical transactional unit in a pre-coinage economy still transitioning from iron bar currency, likely used in elite exchange, tribute payment, or mercenary hire rather than daily market trade.
ABC 587 belongs to a typological tradition derived ultimately from Macedonian gold staters that filtered through Gaul across several generations of copying and stylistic drift.
