| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse depicts a armed warrior in chain mail riding on horseback to the left, rendered in the bold, stylised manner characteristic of late British Celtic coinage. The rider is shown holding a sword aloft in his right hand, with the horse's musculature and movement conveyed through vigorous, flowing lines. A prominent pellet-within-ring symbol occupies the lower field beneath the horse, serving as a decorative or symbolic device. The composition fills the coin flan with dynamic energy, combining naturalistic intent with the abstracted artistic conventions of Catuvellaunian die-engravers. |

Tasciovanos ruled the Catuvellauni from their capital at Verulamium — modern St Albans — and his adoption of the title RIGON, a Latinized rendering of the Celtic word for king, reflects direct engagement with Roman political vocabulary at precisely the moment Augustus was consolidating power across Gaul. This is not a tribe imitating Rome from a distance; Tasciovanos was negotiating proximity to it.
The gold coinage attributed to him is struck from broadly consistent blanks, suggesting organized production rather than sporadic emission, though the precise mint location within Catuvellauni territory remains unresolved by archaeology.
