| Aanvullende informatie |
Epaticcus was a son of Tasciovanus and almost certainly a brother of Cunobelin — his westward expansion into Atrebatic territory during the late 30s AD displaced the ruling Verica, who eventually fled to Rome and petitioned Claudius directly. That appeal became one of the stated pretexts for the Roman invasion of 43 AD. At roughly 0.3g, minims like this were the smallest denomination in the late Iron Age British monetary system, likely used for fine commercial transactions in a society already deeply enmeshed in cross-Channel trade with Roman Gaul.
