| Obverse description | Plain convex gold flan bearing a recessed rectangular tablet or panel in the centre of the field, within which the abbreviated Latin legend COMF is incised in bold, irregular Celtic lettering — an abbreviation for Commii Filius, meaning 'Son of Commius', asserting the dynastic lineage of Tincomarus. The flan is characteristically lumpy and irregular, as is typical of late Iron Age British quarter staters struck by the Atrebates. No figural imagery appears on this face; the entire design is devoted to the epigraphic declaration within its framed tablet. |
