| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylised Celtic design derived from a wreathed head and draped cloak, rendered in characteristic La Tène curvilinear style. A prominent corded or ribbed diagonal spike dominates the lower field, flanked by pellet ornaments and flowing scroll motifs. To the upper right, a large cogwheel sun-ring symbol with concentric ring centre is depicted, its radiating cogs clearly defined. The entire composition is executed in bold relief with no inscriptions, typical of uninscribed British Celtic coinage of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Regni Ratham type belongs to a cluster of uninscribed British gold staters and fractions produced in the decades before Caesar's expeditions of 55 and 54 BC disrupted Continental trade networks and accelerated the adoption of inscribed coinage among southern British tribes. The term "Ratham" is a modern die-grouping designation, not a tribal word — ABC classifications like this one reflect Chris Rudd and Elizabeth Cottam's systematic effort to impose catalog order on a coinage tradition that was never administratively unified.
Quarter staters of this weight class were likely used in high-value transactions or warrior gift exchange rather than everyday commerce. Finds concentrate heavily in West Sussex and Hampshire.
