| Beschrijving voorzijde | Abstract wreath motif rendered in Late Celtic style, composed of back-to-back crescents arranged on a three-line wreath, with the middle left and right lines corded and the outer top and bottom lines also corded. The design is divided into four angles by the wreath framework, within which the inscription EPPI appears distributed across the fields. The overall composition reflects the stylised, non-representational tradition characteristic of late Cantian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cantii occupied the territory of modern Kent, the primary landing zone for both Caesar's expeditions in 55 and 54 BC and the Claudian invasion of 43 AD. Coinage attributed to this tribe in the final decades before the conquest reflects the rapid political fragmentation of southeastern Britain, with named rulers — "Anarevito" among them — appearing on issues as local dynasties jostled for position, likely courting or resisting Roman commercial ties simultaneously. The name itself is Celtic, probably an honorific title rather than a personal name, though the distinction is debated.
