| Reverse description | A bull butting to the right occupies the central field, depicted in the stylised, energetic manner characteristic of Atrebatic Celtic coinage. The animal's body is rendered with bold, rounded forms, its head lowered in a charging posture. Above the bull, a partial inscription in Latin letters reads VIR or VER, representing an abbreviated form of the issuer's name Verica. The composition is typical of late British Iron Age silver coinage, where naturalistic influence from Roman provincial prototypes blends with the abstracted Celtic artistic tradition. |
