| 背面描述 | Highly stylised bull represented entirely by straight linear elements, facing an indeterminate direction, in keeping with the abstract geometric conventions of the Cantian potin coinage. A central pellet occupies the body of the animal, and a single crescent motif appears above. A plain exergual line defines the lower boundary of the design field. The composition is characteristic of the debased bull types associated with the ABC 174 series and the broader Allen P1/P2 classification. |

The Cantii occupied the territory of modern Kent, and their potin coinage was among the last indigenous struck — or rather, cast — currency produced in Britain before Caesar's expeditions of 55 and 54 BC disrupted the political fabric of the southeast. Whether production continued through that disruption or halted at it remains debated. The "dump" form, a thick irregular cast blank rather than a struck flan, places this among the cruder functional issues of the type, circulating alongside more refined coinage in a mixed economy that archaeologists have traced through oppida site assemblages across Kent and into Essex.
