| 背面描述 | A boar advances to the right, rendered in the stylized Celtic manner with exaggerated bristles along the spine and compact, angular body. The inscription VI appears above the boar and R below, serving as an abbreviated royal legend for Verica Rex (Verica King), marking this issue as attributable to the Atrebatic ruler Verica. The design occupies most of the flan, with the lettering flanking the central animal motif in the upper and lower fields respectively. |

Verica ruled the Atrebates in the decades immediately before the Claudian invasion of 43 AD, and his coins are among the clearest evidence that southern British elites had absorbed Roman political habits — he styled himself REX on his coinage, a title with obvious Roman resonance, and almost certainly maintained client-king relations with Rome. These minims, the smallest denomination in his series, circulated at the lowest level of economic life and were produced in quantity despite their negligible silver content.
The running boar type corresponds to Van Arsdell 510-05, a variety documented across a relatively tight find distribution concentrated in Hampshire and West Sussex — broadly consistent with the Atrebatic heartland around Calleva Atrebatum.
