| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse depicts a stylised boar in motion, facing left, rendered in the characteristic schematic Celtic artistic style with an arched back, prominent bristles along the spine, and curvilinear body contours. Beneath the boar, in the lower field, a six-pointed or cross-shaped star motif with a central pellet is prominently placed, serving as the principal secondary design element. The flan is irregular and slightly clipped at the edges, as is typical of hammered quarter staters of this period. The composition reflects the strong pre-Roman Celtic artistic tradition blended with emerging Romanising influences under Tincomarus. |

Tincomarus — son of Commius, the Atrebatan king who had served Caesar as an envoy before spectacularly switching sides during the Gallic Wars — struck this issue during a period of deliberate political realignment toward Rome. Ancient sources, including Augustus's own Res Gestae, record Tincomarus by name as a British king who sent embassies to the emperor, and he is one of only a handful of pre-conquest British rulers attested in Roman documentary evidence. He eventually fled to Rome as a suppliant, probably displaced by his brother Eppillus around 7–5 BC.
The boar carried deep significance in Iron Age warrior culture across Gaul and Britain, appearing on weapons, helmets, and coinage alike as a symbol of martial ferocity rather than mere decoration.
