| 正面描述 | Highly stylised, abstracted head of Apollo facing right in the Late Iron Age Celtic tradition, derived ultimately from Macedonian prototype coinage. The design features a fragmented wreath rendered as curvilinear arcs, a draped cloak indicated by crescentic pellet-chain motifs, and a prominent central spike composed of a straight line terminating in pellets. The wreath is depicted bent at an acute angle at the point of intersection with the spike. Characteristic angular, wing-like projections appear above the head, a defining diagnostic feature of the Whaddon Chase derivative series. |

The Whaddon Chase type takes its name from the Buckinghamshire estate where a significant hoard was discovered in 1849, scattering specimens across early Victorian collections before systematic recording was possible. The Catuvellauni occupied territory roughly corresponding to modern Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire, and their coinage tradition derived ultimately from Macedonian gold staters carried into Gaul by mercenaries — abstract and fragmented across generations of copying until the original prototype became unrecognizable. This quarter stater represents the smallest practical denomination in that hierarchy.
