Ex Geoff Cottam Collection; Lawrence R. Stack Collection (Sotheby's, 22 April 1999), lot 99.
ABC suggests a reattribution of this series from the Durotriges to the Belgae on the strength of find spot evidence. No examples of the type have been found in the territories of the Regni, Atrebates, or Durotriges, with all known coming from the Hampshire area.
