| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly stylised horse prances rightward, its body rendered in vigorous curvilinear Celtic convention with disjointed limbs indicated by lentoid and pellet forms. The mane is depicted as a distinctive ladder pattern — a defining diagnostic feature of this type — formed by a series of parallel transverse bars between two longitudinal lines. A spoked wheel symbol occupies the lower field beneath the horse, representing a solar or solar-chariot motif common in Iron Age British coinage. A spiral sun symbol is positioned in the field before the horse, accompanied by scattered pellets and a crescent form in the upper field. A beaded border runs along the lower flan edge. |

The Atrebates — whose territory covered much of modern Hampshire, Berkshire, and West Sussex — produced this type during the generation immediately preceding Caesar's expeditions to Britain in 55 and 54 BC. The "Ladder Mane" designation comes from a distinctive abstract treatment that evolved through progressive stylistic degradation from the original Macedonian gold stater of Philip II, passed westward through Gaul over roughly two centuries of copying and re-copying by Celtic die cutters working entirely from earlier coin models rather than life.
Van Arsdell 346 is relatively well-documented for a British Celtic issue, with findspot distributions clustering heavily in Hampshire — consistent with the Atrebatic heartland.
