Commentary


Cet exemplaire illustrerait la dégénérescence du type précédent. Selon G. Savès, les deux traits qui biffent le droit seraient le résultat de la hache supposée du droit de la monnaie précédente. Monnaie issue des mêmes coins que la n° 288 du Savès ; notre exemplaire est d’ailleurs plus beau que celui qui sert de monnaie type !.
This example would illustrate the degeneration of the previous type. According to G. Savès, the two lines that strike out the obverse would be the result of the supposed axe of the obverse of the previous coin. Coin from the same dies as No. 288 of Savès; our example is also more beautiful than the one that serves as a type coin!

Historical background


GALLIA - SOUTH WESTERN GAUL - LONGOSTALETES (Area of Narbonne)

(2nd - 1st century BC)

This people who occupied most of the departments of Aude and Hérault is mentioned neither by Ptolemy, nor by Strabo, nor by Caesar. Their coinage is known to us only by the treasures of Béziers (Hérault) discovered in 1871 and which contained between 750 and 800 coins of Languedoc style as well as that of Moussan in the Aude, discovered in 1967 and which contained 28 drachmas of style " Languedocian".
