| 正面铭文 | COM (Translation: (Son of) Commios.) |
| 背面描述 | A mounted warrior advances to the right, seated astride a horse and brandishing a spear in an assertive martial posture, consistent with the equestrian imagery prevalent on late Iron Age British coinage. The horse is depicted in a stylised Celtic manner with elongated limbs and exaggerated musculature. The Latin legend VERIC is inscribed in the lower field below the horse, identifying the issuing king Verica. A dotted border partially frames the design along the coin's circumference. The overall composition reflects the Romanising artistic influences adopted by Verica's mint in the early first century AD. |

Verica ruled the Atrebates as a client king under Roman influence, and it is almost certainly his appeal to Claudius — after being driven out by Catuvellaunian expansion under Cunobelinus's sons — that provided the formal pretext for the Roman invasion of Britain in 43 AD. This coin belongs to his final decades of rule before that exile.
The galley type is associated specifically with Verica's later coinage and may reflect genuine cross-channel trade connections his tribe maintained with Gaul.
