| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylised Celtic abstract design derived from a disintegrated laureate head, rendered in the characteristic British Iron Age manner. The field is dominated by a bold cruciform arrangement of opposed crescents at centre, flanked by four radiating groups of elongated pellets and comma-shaped elements forming a pinwheel-like composition. Numerous relief pellets and lentoid motifs fill the surrounding field, while the overall design retains no legible figural imagery, being entirely resolved into geometric and curvilinear abstraction. No legend or inscription appears on this face. The striking is characteristically irregular, with die-axis shift visible at the flan edges. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised Celtic horse prancing to the right occupies the central field, its body rendered with flowing lines and the characteristic disjointed anatomy of late British Iron Age coinage. Above the horse, a large lunate arc with a pellet-tipped appendage is flanked by a fan-shaped or solar motif to the upper left and a leaf-shaped element to the upper right. Scattered pellets and annulets fill the field around the horse. Beneath the horse, a prominent spoked wheel with eight spokes is depicted, a distinctive feature of the Wonersh type, accompanied by additional annulets and pellet ornaments in the lower field. No inscription is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Wonersh type takes its name from the Surrey findspot where early examples came to light, and it belongs to the prolific uninscribed coinage produced by the Atrebates and Regini before Roman contact imposed dynastic naming conventions on British issues. These tribes controlled a broad swathe of southern Britain — roughly Hampshire, Sussex, and Berkshire — and their gold staters circulated across a network of elite exchange rather than everyday commerce. Precise attribution within the uninscribed series remains contested; die-link studies have tightened chronologies somewhat, but the forty-year production window reflects genuine uncertainty rather than an unusually long mint run.
