Beschrijving voorzijde Highly stylised Celtic solar design composed of a central annulet from which radiate multiple bold ridges, dividing the field into quadrants filled with pellets, elongated pellet-and-bar motifs, and leaf-shaped elements. The upper half features a prominent fan-like arrangement of radiating lines reminiscent of solar rays, characteristic of the Triple Sun series. The overall composition is executed in the abstract La Tène artistic tradition, with no legend or inscription present. The flan is slightly irregular and exhibits characteristic hammerwork surfaces.

Aanvullende informatie

The Atrebates occupied territory spanning both sides of the Channel, and their coinage tradition derived ultimately from Macedonian gold staters carried into Gaul by mercenaries returning from service under Philip II and Alexander. The fractional quarter stater denominations like this one were the workhorses of elite exchange — land, cattle, and political alliance, not market transactions.

ABC 608 is distinguished by the triple sun arrangement, a motif appearing in a tight cluster of related dies suggesting a single short production run. The Sussex findspot concentration points to Chichester as the probable distribution center, later formalized as Noviomagus under Cogidubnus.
