背面描述 Disarticulated horse passant left in the Celtic abstract style, featuring a distinctively straight neck and an arced upper segment of the hind leg. The field above the horse is filled with numerous pellets, while a single pellet representing a stylised sun appears in the lower field below the horse. The overall composition reflects the characteristic disjointed, schematic horse imagery typical of late pre-Roman British coinage.

附加信息

The Westerham Northern type sits at the turbulent intersection of Caesar's two British expeditions — 55 and 54 BC — a period when Catuvellauni political authority under Cassivellaunus was under direct military threat from Rome. Whether these staters circulated as currency or functioned primarily as warrior payment and gift exchange is still debated, but the weight standard suggests a deliberate alignment with continental Gallo-Belgic traditions rather than any Roman influence.

The "Straight Neck" classification within the broader Westerham series reflects a die-cutting distinction that Sills uses to separate what were likely consecutive production runs from the same issuing authority.
