Commentary
La petite tête coupée rappelle la drachme LT. 4560 dont ces oboles pourraient être des divisionnaires.
Ce petit monnayage d'argent est certainement à mettre en relation avec les divisions d'argent attribuées aux Arvernes (cf. MONNAIES XXVI, n° 614-615).
The small severed head is reminiscent of the LT drachma. 4560 of which these obols could be divisional. This small silver coinage is certainly to be related to the silver divisions attributed to the Arverni (cf. COINS XXVI, n° 614-615)
