Additional information

The Wonersh Left type takes its name from a hoard found near Wonersh in Surrey, the heartland of Regni territory. These quarter staters circulated in the decades before Caesar's two expeditions to Britain — 55 and 54 BC — and the political pressure those campaigns placed on southern tribal confederacies almost certainly disrupted whatever minting continuity existed. ABC 617 is one of several closely related quarter stater varieties distinguished primarily by the orientation of the central design, a distinction that modern specialists use to map regional distribution patterns across Atrebatic and Regini zones of influence.
