Commentary
Ce quart de statère est très rare ; ceux conservés au musée de Lyon et de Zurich sont de qualité bien moindre et à peine lisibles. Le type de droit dériverait des statères d’or des Suessions.
Ce monnayage a été récemment réétudié lors de la parution des Mélange offerts à S. Scheers.
This quarter stater is very rare; those preserved in the museums of Lyon and Zurich are of much lower quality and barely legible. The obverse type is said to derive from the gold staters of the Suessiones. This coinage was recently re-examined with the publication of the Mélanges offert à S. Scheers

Historical background
EDUENS, ÆDUI / ARVERNI, UNSPECIFIED
(1st century BC)
This so-called Siaugues-Saint-Romain series is more complex than it appears and it is difficult to present an exhaustive study of it due to the advanced state of corrosion of most of the known examples. A concentration of these coins can be observed in lower Allier, around Vichy (...). The geographical distribution of the coins makes them a local coinage. It could correspond to a coinage of pagus, whose territory would extend into the protruding space described by the Arverne city in the Allier valley, north of a Mariol-Bègues line. K. Gruel and D. Lallemand, Gallic coins and archeology of the territory in Auvergne, Essays in honor of Simone Scheers, pages 155-171.
