| Aversbeschreibung | Stylised Celtic head facing right, rendered in the abstract La Tène artistic tradition. The hair is depicted as a series of corded crescents arranged in flowing, decorative arcs across the crown and nape. A distinctive cogwheel or sun-wheel motif occupies the chin area, a characteristic device of the Danebury type. The facial features are reduced to schematic forms typical of late Iron Age British coinage. The field is plain, with no legend or inscription. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Atrebates occupied a territory roughly centered on modern Berkshire and Hampshire, their political ties to the Gaulish Atrebates across the Channel remaining active well into the Caesar's British campaigns of 55–54 BC. The "cogwheel" type takes its name from the distinctive pellet-and-ring arrangement identified in finds concentrated around Danebury hillfort — a site that had largely fallen out of use as a defended settlement by this period, though it apparently retained some ritual or transactional significance.
The type is poorly represented in hoards relative to other Atrebatic silver, suggesting either a short production window or highly localized circulation.
