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.
