| Additional information |
Verica ruled the Atrebates following the death of Eppillus, styling himself REX on his coinage in direct imitation of Roman titulature — a political statement as much as a monetary one. His kingdom maintained close ties with Rome, and the coinage reflects that alignment. The minims, fractional silver struck at barely detectable scale, were likely used in small commercial transactions or ritual deposit rather than bulk trade.
ABC 1289 is among the harder Vericан minims to attribute cleanly in the field, given the die variability at this size.
