| Aversbeschreibung | A plain cross divides the flan into four quadrants, with small uncertain pellet or blob devices occupying the angles. The design is executed in the characteristic Celtic abstract style, with the cross rendered in bold raised relief against a flat field. The irregular flan edges and variable strike are typical of hand-hammered Iron Age British minims. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A schematically rendered bull's head facing the viewer, depicted in bold Celtic relief with prominent muzzle and short curved horns indicated above. Two pellets flank the head, likely representing the eyes or nostrils in the abstract Celtic artistic convention. The design fills the irregular flan, with the surface showing the characteristic flatness and flow lines of a hammered silver piece. No legend or inscription accompanies the type. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Tincomarus was a son of Commius — the Atrebatic king who had served as Caesar's envoy in Britain before spectacularly defecting and fleeing to Britain after falling out with Rome. The shift visible across Tincomarus's coinage from native Celtic idiom toward increasingly Romanized types tracks his own political realignment; he eventually sought refuge with Augustus himself, appearing in the Res Gestae as a suppliant British king. These minims, the smallest denomination in the series, circulated at the granular end of daily exchange and survive in correspondingly rougher condition than the larger units.
