Beschrijving keerzijde A schematised horse prancing to the left occupies the central field, rendered in the distinctive disjointed Celtic style with elongated limbs and abstracted body forms. Above the horse, a radiate or floral solar symbol composed of pellets and curved lines suggests a stylised sun motif. Below the horse, a double-ring annulet with a central pellet serves as a ground element. Additional pellets and decorative motifs are scattered in the field, consistent with the abstract ornamental vocabulary of Atrebatic coinage of this period.

Aanvullende informatie

The Atrebates maintained close ties with their Belgic counterparts across the Channel — Caesar's campaigns in Gaul between 58 and 51 BC disrupted those networks severely, and some numismatists argue that the acceleration of insular coinage production in southern Britain during exactly this window reflects tribal leadership consolidating wealth ahead of anticipated Roman pressure. The Old Basing type is a geographically specific attribution, named after the Hampshire find concentration rather than any mint site we can positively identify.
