Commentary
Bien que pas spécialement rare, il est cependant assez peu commun d’avoir un potin de ce type dans un tel état de conservation ! Ces potins sont souvent coulés de façon assez peu soignée et les flans trop courts....
Although not particularly rare, it is nevertheless quite unusual to have a potin of this type in such a state of preservation! These potins are often cast in a rather careless manner and the blanks too short...

Historical background
GALLIA - AULERCI EBUROVICES (Area of Évreux)
(3rd - 1st century BC)
The Aulerci were subdivided into three tribes: Aulerci Diablintes, Aulerci Cenomani and Aulerci Éburovices. The territory of Aulerques Éburovices corresponds to the current department of Eure. They are quoted several times in Caesar's Commentaries. According to the latter, they would have massacred their Senate favorable to the Romans in 56 BC and would have joined the Unelles and the revolted Lexoviens. In 52 BC, they provided a contingent of three thousand men to the relief army. : Caesar (BG.(II, 34; III, 17, 29; VII, 4, 75; VIII, 7). Kruta: 72.
