Commentary
Cet exemplaire en bronze n'est pas exactement du même type que celui qui illustre le Nouvel Atlas, n° 174A. Cet exemplaire a la particularité d'avoir deux annelets et deux petits tirets ; il pourrait s'agir d'un vestige de légende OTIO, de LVCOTIOS.
This bronze example is not exactly the same type as the one illustrating the New Atlas, No. 174A. This example has the particularity of having two rings and two small dashes; it could be a remnant of the legend OTIO, by LVCOTIOS

Historical background
GALLIA BELGICA - REMI (Area of Reims)
(2nd - 1st century BC)
The Remi were one of the most powerful peoples of Gaul and loyal allies of the Romans. The territory of the Rèmes extended over present-day Champagne, along the Aisne. They had for neighbors the Atuatuci, the Treveri, the Mediomatrics, the Lingones, the Suessions, the Bellovaci and the Nervians. They denounced to Caesar the coalition of Belgian peoples of 57 BC which included the Suessions who shared the same laws and the same magistrates. Their main oppidum was Bibrax. The capital of the civitas in Gallo-Roman times was Durocortorum (Reims). Caesar (BG. II, 3-5, 7, 12; III, 11; V, 3, 24, 53, 54, 56; VI, 4, 12, 44; VII, 63, 90; VIII, 6, 11) . Strabo (G. IV, 3, 5). Kruta: 70, 313-314, 366.
