| 背面描述 | Stylised Celtic horse prancing to the right, rendered in a bold, schematic manner typical of Southern British Iron Age coinage. The horse is depicted with disjointed, abstracted limbs, a prominent arching neck, and a pellet-tipped tail. A charioteer or driver figure appears above the horse's back, reduced to a simple linear form. Below the horse, a six-spoked wheel motif occupies the lower field, a common emblematic device on Atrebatic issues. The overall composition fills the irregularly shaped flan with confident, deeply cut relief work, and no inscriptions or legends are present. |

The Atrebates who struck this coinage were a Belgic tribe whose territory straddled what is now the English Channel — the British branch having crossed from Gaul sometime in the late second or early first century BC, bringing Continental minting traditions with them. The broader 'B' classification groups several die-linked variants that numismatists have progressively separated through ABC and Van Arsdell's work, which is why the reference spread here runs across multiple catalogue numbers rather than resolving to one.
Caesar's campaigns against the Continental Atrebates in 57 BC and again in 51 BC almost certainly disrupted cross-channel political ties, leaving the British branch increasingly autonomous — a pressure that may partly explain the proliferation of local die varieties during this period.
