| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised boar strides to the right, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition with the body composed of simplified linear and pellet elements. A fragmented inscription reading 'TI NC', an abbreviation of the ruler's name Tincomarus, appears above and below the boar in retrograde (reversed) Latin lettering. The limbs of the animal are rendered as short strokes, and the overall composition fills the compact flan typical of this denomination. The execution reflects the abstract, highly stylised approach characteristic of Atrebatic silver minims of the late first century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tincomarus — son of Commius, the Atrebatic king who had served Caesar as an envoy before spectacularly defecting during the Gallic Wars — issued coins during a period of intensifying Roman diplomatic pressure on southern Britain. His name appears Latinized on several issues, suggesting deliberate accommodation of Roman tastes, and ancient sources confirm he eventually fled to Augustus, likely around 7 BC, driven out by his brother Eppillus. This minim, struck a decade or more before that exile, belongs to the earlier phase of his rule, before that accommodation became survival.
