Beschrijving keerzijde A stylized horse prances to the right in the central field, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition with elongated limbs and a curved, lively body. The abbreviated royal legend TIN appears above the horse, referencing the issuing king Tincomarus. Below the horse, a reversed C symbol is visible, a characteristic decorative element of this Atrebatic series. A wreath or pellet border encircles the design, framing the composition within the irregular flan. The overall style reflects the late Celtic coinage tradition influenced by Gallo-Belgic prototypes.

Aanvullende informatie

Tincomarus was a son of Commius — the Atrebatic king who had served Caesar as an envoy before famously turning against him — and his coinage reflects a deliberate pivot toward Roman cultural influence, adopting Latin inscriptions at a time when most British rulers still issued wholly Celtic designs. He was later deposed, almost certainly by his brother Eppillus, and fled to Rome, where Augustus received him; the submission is recorded in the Res Gestae. This quarter stater belongs to that increasingly Romanized phase of his reign.
