Additional information

The Atrebates occupied territory straddling what is now the Hampshire-Sussex border, and their coinage tradition derives ultimately from Macedonian gold staters that entered Britain through Gaulish intermediaries during the late Iron Age. The "Sills Insular" classification reflects work by numismatist John Sills in distinguishing a regionally produced insular series from its Continental prototypes — a distinction that collapsed several previously separate attribution categories.

Van Arsdell 201 is among the types recovered in quantity from the Alton hoard, suggesting concentrated use within a specific tribal or ritual context rather than broad circulation.
