| Reversbeschreibung | Disjointed and highly abstracted horse prancing to the left, its body broken into separated curvilinear and geometric components in the typical Durotrigan schematic style. Above the horse appears a distinctive stylized motif conventionally described as a 'crab', formed by a tight cluster of raised pellets or bosses arranged in an ovoid group, flanked by arc and scroll elements, likely derived from the charioteer of the original Macedonian prototype. Additional linear and pellet ornaments fill the field below and around the horse. The overall composition is severely abstracted, with no attempt at naturalistic representation. No legend or inscription is present. |

The so-called Durotrigan series presents a classification problem that has occupied Celtic numismatists for decades. "Durotrigan B" is a modern catalog convenience — the actual issuing tribe remains unresolved, and attributing these coins to the Durotriges is contested. They may predate the tribe's emergence as a coherent political entity entirely, placing production somewhere in the transitional period before Caesar's expeditions of 55 and 54 BC began disrupting cross-Channel trade networks that had kept Gaulish coin types circulating into southern Britain.
Gold content in this series degrades progressively through successive issues — this earlier type retains relatively high fineness before the pronounced debasement that characterizes later Durotrigan production.
