Commentary
Toutes les drachmes de cette série (sauf de très rares exceptions) sont dans un état assez médiocre et / ou de frappe fruste. Cette obole peut s’intégrer dans la série, mais semble totalement inédite avec cette tête à gauche et les trois points sous le cheval au revers.
All the drachmas in this series (with very rare exceptions) are in fairly poor condition and/or rough minting. This obol can be integrated into the series, but seems completely new with this head on the left and the three points under the horse on the reverse

Historical background
GALLIA - SANTONES / MID-WESTERN, Unspecified
(1st century BC)
A large part of the coinage of the Center-West still poses delicate problems of restitution today. To the fine, sometimes very detailed attributions of the two previous centuries (19th and 20th centuries), the historians of Gaul, with a view to globalization, prefer to refer to large geographical groups. Isn't the most important thing today that we are in possession of the archaeological object itself? Nevertheless if, in the future, the attitude of the discoverers of coins, fortuitous discoveries or not, official or not, allied to the benevolence of our sometimes suspicious archaeologists could allow us, thanks to a close collaboration (collaborare, to work together in Latin) and extent of their respective competences, to have a better knowledge of the places of discoveries, we could see gradually disappearing all these attributions "uncertain this, uncertain that" for the greatest pleasure of each and the Knowledge of all.
