Beschrijving voorzijde Highly stylised and abstracted rendering of a laureate head derived ultimately from the Macedonian stater prototype, executed in the characteristic insular Celtic manner. The facial features are decomposed into a series of raised pellets, curved lines, and elongated comma-shaped elements distributed across the flan. Bold crescentic forms suggest the hair or wreath, while diagonal striated lines traverse the central field, a hallmark of the Regni Yarmouth type. The composition fills the irregular flan to its edges, with no legend or inscription present, reflecting the purely aniconic decorative vocabulary of pre-conquest British coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The Atrebates were among the most Continental-influenced of the southern British tribes, maintaining close trade and diplomatic ties with Belgic Gaul throughout the late Iron Age. The Yarmouth stater type sits within a lineage descending from the Gallo-Belgic E imports that flooded into Britain in the decades before Caesar's campaigns — successive generations of copying gradually abstracted the original Macedonian prototype into something distinctly local. Caesar's invasions of 55 and 54 BC likely disrupted the production of types in this date range, making precise attribution to either side of that disruption a persistent problem for specialists.
