| Beschrijving keerzijde | An annulate horse advancing left with head lowered, its body decorated with pellets on the chest and rump in typical Celtic schematic style. Multiple pelleted sun symbols are dispersed throughout the field surrounding the horse, creating a densely ornamented composition. The horse's form is rendered with characteristic Iron Age abstraction, with limbs and body reduced to flowing curvilinear elements. The annulate decoration on the horse's body is a defining feature of the Hayling Two Boars type. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Hayling Two Boars type takes its name from the Hayling Island area of Hampshire, where votive deposits at a late Iron Age shrine have produced concentrations of Atrebatic coinage suggesting ritual deposition rather than loss. This coin circulated — and was deliberately removed from circulation — during a period when Caesar's campaigns in Gaul were severing trade networks and pushing refugee aristocrats and their retinues across the Channel into Atrebatic territory, compressing political change into roughly a single decade.
ABC 884 is among the lighter silver units of the sequence, consistent with a documented reduction in flan weight seen across Atrebatic issues during this period of monetary stress.
