| Aversbeschreibung | A boar advances to the right, rendered in the characteristically abstracted Celtic artistic style. The dorsal ridge is depicted as a prominent fan-shaped crest of radiating lines — the so-called Mohican bristles — surmounted by a row of pellets. The body of the animal is rendered with textured hatching, and the limbs are indicated by schematic linear strokes. Scattered pellets and annular ornaments populate the field around the figure, consistent with the decorative vocabulary of late Iron Age British coinage. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A stylised horse is depicted moving to the left, rendered in the abstracted curvilinear manner typical of late Iron Age British silver coinage. Above the horse, a series of curved wing-like lines arc across the upper field, a motif derived from the charioteer figure of earlier Gallo-Belgic prototypes. Below the horse, a loop or garland of pellets is arranged in a curved formation. Additional pellets and annular elements are scattered throughout the field, contributing to the densely decorative character of the die. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Atrebates occupied a territory straddling what is now Hampshire and Sussex, and their coinage developed under direct Gaulish influence — hardly surprising given that the tribe itself migrated from Belgic Gaul in the late Iron Age. The Danebury Boar types take their name partly from the hillfort at Danebury, a major regional power center that had been in decline for over a century by the time these coins were struck, yet clearly still carried enough cultural weight to anchor a numismatic identity.
Caesar's invasions of 55 and 54 BC would have struck directly at Atrebatic territory and its trade networks. These silver units belong to precisely that moment of disruption.
