Beschrijving voorzijde Plain field bearing a raised rectangular tablet or cartouche containing the abbreviated royal legend TINC in bold Latin capital letters, referencing the issuing king Tincomarus. The lettering is rendered in a native Celtic hand, with the characters occupying the full width of the tablet. The surrounding field is entirely blank, characteristic of the native-style coinage of the Atrebates. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, as typical of Late Iron Age British hammered gold staters.

Aanvullende informatie

Tincomarus was a son of Commius, the Atrebatic king who had served Julius Caesar as a diplomatic envoy before spectacularly defecting during the Gallic Wars. By the time this stater was struck, Tincomarus was cultivating close ties with Augustan Rome — his name appears in the Res Gestae as one of the British kings who sent embassies to Augustus, an extraordinary detail that places this coin squarely within a moment of deliberate political realignment toward the Mediterranean world.

He was eventually expelled, probably by his brother Eppillus, and fled to Rome sometime around 7 AD.
