Commentary
Ce bronze constitue la première classe de ce nouveau monnayage, connu seulement depuis 1988, puisque les exemplaires du Musée d’Evreux publiés en 1981, n’ont pas de légende lisible.
This bronze constitutes the first class of this new coinage, known only since 1988, since the examples of the Evreux Museum published in 1981, do not have a legible legend.

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.
