| 表面の説明 | Schematised outline bust of Apollo facing left, rendered in the degenerate Celtic tradition derived from Massaliot prototypes. The eye is depicted as an open ring without a central pellet, and a single line descends along the middle of the neck, serving as the neckline. The facial features are reduced to abstract linear elements characteristic of late Iron Age British potin coinage. |

The Cantii occupied what is now Kent, and their potin coinage represents some of the earliest indigenous struck — or more precisely, cast — currency in Britain, predating the Roman invasion by well over a century. Potin itself is a tin-rich bronze alloy, and these pieces were almost certainly cast in strip moulds rather than struck, which explains the characteristically rough surfaces and irregular flan shapes that distinguish genuine examples from later imitations.
Holman's classification system subdivided Cantian potin into fine typological groupings based on stylistic degeneration across generations of copying. The B4 designation places this piece within a specific phase of that sequence.
