| Beschrijving keerzijde | A triple-tailed horse galloping to the right, rendered in the highly abstracted Celtic style with disjointed body elements characteristic of British Iron Age coinage. A spoked wheel — the defining diagnostic element of the Cheriton type — appears prominently in the lower field beneath the horse. A detached charioteer's arm is visible above the horse's back. Additional pellets and crescentic ornaments fill the field, contributing to the dynamic, fragmented composition typical of Atrebatic staters of this series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cheriton Wheel type takes its name from a hoard found near Cheriton, Hampshire, and belongs to a sequence of Atrebatic coinage that developed independently from continental Gaulish prototypes — diverging progressively further from the original Macedonian stater designs that crossed the Channel with migrating tribes and mercenaries returning from service under Hellenistic commanders. By this point in the sequence, the abstraction is so advanced that the Philippic ancestry is largely theoretical.
The ABC 758 reference places this firmly within Richard Hobbs and Philip de Jersey's classification framework established through British Museum Iron Age studies, cross-referenced against the Celtic Coin Index at Oxford.
