Found in St. Mary Bourne, Hampshire, August 2012.This distinctive type was first published in the Numismatic Circular in May 1992, where Robert Van Arsdell described it as 'an Atrebatic type [that] represents the transition between the uninscribed coins and the first dynastic issues of Commius.' The authors of ABC and subsequently Sills give the type to Hampshire, which was the territory of the Belgae. The very neat die cutting with the 'ladder' mane and twisted tail to the horse distinguish it from other late uninscribed issues.
