'Tincomarus Comet' Unit 'Atrebatic D' - Tincomarus

Aversbeschreibung	A multi-rayed comet or wheel motif dominates the field, composed of eight diverging lines radiating outward from a central raised pellet, the whole enclosed within a plain border. The radiating arms are rendered in a bold, schematic Celtic style with incised grooves creating a strong visual impression of motion or stellar energy. The flan is slightly irregular, consistent with hand-hammered production. No legend appears on this face. The design is characteristic of the 'Atrebatic D' coinage type attributed to Tincomarus.

Reversbeschreibung	A stylised animal, most probably a horse or boar, is depicted in profile occupying the central field, rendered in the highly abstracted Celtic artistic convention. The creature's body is composed of bold curved lines with pellet ornaments indicating joints or decorative features, and a prominently curved neck and haunches. Scattered pellets and abbreviated decorative elements fill the surrounding field. A partial Latin legend, reading TINC, is present around the periphery, identifying the issuer as Tincomarus. The execution is typical of late Iron Age British coinage of the Atrebatic series.
