| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylised head facing right, rendered in the distinctive Celtic abstract idiom with the hair depicted as a series of corded, rope-like parallel lines radiating across the field. The facial features are reduced to schematic elements, showing strong typological affinity with contemporary Dobunnic silver coinage. The design fills the flan with characteristic Late Iron Age artistic energy, with no inscription or legend present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Worthing Wonder type takes its name from the concentration of finds around the Sussex coast, territory controlled by the Atrebates and their southern clients the Regini in the decades bracketing Caesar's expeditions to Britain. Whether the disruption of Caesar's 55 and 54 BC landings accelerated or merely coincided with shifts in local coin production is unresolved, but the type's date range sits squarely across that moment of contact.
ABC 659 is among the more lightly distributed of the southern British silver units, with a find record that clusters tightly enough to suggest highly localized circulation rather than inter-tribal exchange.
