背面描述	A stylised horse wearing a necklace and belt strides to the right, depicted in the distinctive abstracted manner of Cantian Celtic coinage. Pellet-in-ring motifs appear above and below the horse's raised front leg, with an additional pellet placed below the neck. A prominent pentagram occupies the lower field, a diagnostic feature identifying this type within the Cantii series.

附加信息	The Cantii occupied the territory of modern Kent — the landing zone for both Julius Caesar's expeditions of 55 and 54 BC. That repeated Roman military pressure almost certainly disrupted Cantian coinage production and political structures significantly, making the precise dating of their bronze series difficult to anchor. The pentagram appears on several Celtic coinages across Britain and Gaul but its specific significance to the Cantii remains unresolved; no ancient source attributes meaning to it directly.
