| Beschrijving keerzijde | Schematic stag facing right, depicted in a highly stylised Celtic manner with a prominent, branching antler rendered as a linear motif above the body. The animal's form is reduced to stick-like geometric elements, characteristic of the Danebury Boat Stag series. Surrounding the central device are multiple concentric ring ornaments distributed across the field, a hallmark decorative feature of this type. The overall composition is enclosed within the irregularly shaped flan, with no legend or inscription present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Atrebates occupied a territory roughly corresponding to modern Hampshire, Berkshire, and Sussex, a region under acute pressure during Caesar's two expeditions to Britain in 55 and 54 BC. Whether these fractional silver pieces were struck in direct response to the increased need for portable, small-denomination exchange during that destabilized decade is debated, but the timing is suggestive. The Danebury hillfort, which gives this type its modern classifier, was effectively abandoned as a major settlement well before this coinage was struck — the name reflects find distribution, not a mint location.
