Commentary


Jean-Baptiste Colbert de Beaulieu intègre cette série dans le monnayage des Parisii, comme série homotypique. Dans le Nouvel Atlas, ces monnaies sont classées comme Parisiaques.
J. Sills précise que cette série spécifique serait issue d’un troisième atelier rattachable aux Parisii.
Toutes les monnaies de cette série sont altérées par un coup de burin, très nettement porté au revers de notre exemplaire, avec les traces en reliefs sur le droit devant le visage.

Historical background


PARISII (Area of Paris)

(2nd - 1st century BC)

The Parisii were a small but powerful people whose oppidum was Lutèce. Related to the Sénons, the Parisii and the city would have emancipated themselves from their tutelage, relatively late, after the Arverne defeat of 121 BC. The wealth of the Parisii rested on the river control of the Seine and the confluences with the Marne, Bièvre, Ourcq and Oise. César chooses Lutèce, in 53 before J. - C. to convene the assembly of the Gallic peoples. The Parisii were among the first to answer the call of Vercingetorix, the following year, in 52 BC, and they provided a contingent of eight thousand men for the relief army. Watched over by Labienus, friend and legate of Caesar, the territory of the Parisii was the scene of the last battles between Gauls and Romans. Eventually, the Aulercan chief Camulogenes was defeated and killed near Lutetia. Caesar (BG. VI, 3; VII, 4, 34, 57, 75). Kruta: 36, 40 46, 68, 365, 368.
