Aversbeschreibung Stylised Celtic head facing left, rendered in a highly schematic and crudely executed manner characteristic of a contemporary counterfeit. The hair is depicted as a curved ladder motif composed of parallel ridges, a hallmark of the Commios Ladder Head series. The eye is rendered as a lentoid pellet-in-ring device. A small phallic face or scroll ornament appears in the field before the head, a secondary decorative element typical of this issue type.

Reversbeschreibung Stylised Celtic horse prancing to the left, rendered in a debased and schematic style consistent with a contemporary counterfeit of the Commius coinage. A horizontal lazy E symbol occupies the field above the horse, serving as the principal identifying device of this type. Below the horse, an uncertain zoomorphic figure rendered as a reversed or backwards S-shaped form is visible in the lower field. The overall execution is crude, with irregular flan preparation and shallow, uneven relief throughout.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Contemporary counterfeits of Commios-type units were not crude fraud in the modern sense — they circulated alongside official issues and were likely produced by smiths operating at the margins of tribal authority, meeting genuine demand for small silver coinage during a period when Atrebatic output was inconsistent. The silver-plated bronze fabric of this piece places it firmly within a known class of imitations, and the tell is always the same: wear exposes the bronze core at the high points of the flan where the plating thins first.
