Commentary
Cet exemplaire est intéressant avec un globule sur la ligne d’exergue au revers.
La classe II est la plus stylisée ; la tête est bandée et la chevelure marquée par quatre mèches. Le taureau est moins reconnaissable et sur cet exemplaire, il est entouré de quatre globules répartis dans le champ.
This specimen is interesting with a globule on the exergue line on the reverse. Class II is the most stylized; the head is bandaged and the hair marked by four locks. The bull is less recognizable and on this specimen, it is surrounded by four globules distributed in the field

Historical background
HIGH AND MIDDLE SEINE
(2nd - 1st century BC)
Under this term are brought together two large distinct but homogeneous groups, and an isolated potin. A few years ago, all of these coins would have been attributed to the Leuques without a shadow of hesitation. It is the systematic reclassification of emissions that now makes it possible to provide a different hypothesis.
