Reversbeschreibung A stylised horse prances to the right in the characteristic Celtic abstract manner, its anatomy rendered with exaggerated musculature and disjointed limbs in the tradition of late Iron Age British coinage. Scattered pellets and annulets fill the field around the horse, serving as decorative ground elements common to Atrebatic issues. A sloping letter, identified as T — an abbreviation for the issuing authority Tincomarus — appears above the horse. The tail and mane are depicted with bold, sweeping strokes, and the overall composition reflects the artistic conventions of the Atrebates tribal coinage of southern Britain circa 30–25 BC.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Tincomarus was the son of Commius, the Atrebatic king who had served as Caesar's envoy during the Gallic campaigns before spectacularly defecting and leading guerrilla resistance against Rome — making his son's later coinage, which increasingly mimics Roman republican and Augustan types, one of the more politically loaded numismatic shifts in British pre-Roman history. This spiral type represents an earlier phase of Tincomarus's rule, before that Romanization became overt.

He was eventually expelled, possibly by his brother Eppillus, and is recorded as a suppliant at Augustus's court — a detail preserved in the Res Gestae.
