| 背面描述 | A stylised boar strides vigorously to the right, rendered in the energetic and schematic tradition of Late Iron Age Celtic coinage, with bristles along the spine indicated by short engraved lines and the legs depicted with characteristic abstract articulation. A six-pointed star is prominently placed in the upper field above the animal's back. The Latin inscription VIRI — an abbreviated form of the issuer's name Verica — appears in the lower exergual area beneath the boar, partially enclosed by a pellet border running along the lower periphery of the flan. The composition reflects the dynastic coinage of Verica, king of the Atrebates, active in southern Britain in the early first century AD. |

Verica was the son of Commius — the Atrebatic king who had served Caesar as an envoy before spectacularly switching sides during the Gallic Wars. By the time Verica issued this unit, Roman cultural influence was saturating southern British coinage, and his dynasty was leaning hard into that relationship. When he was eventually expelled from power around 40 AD, likely by Caratacus and the Catuvellauni, Verica fled to Rome and petitioned Claudius directly — an appeal that provided the immediate political pretext for the Roman invasion of Britain in 43 AD.
