Commentary
Ces deniers sont tantôt attribués aux Vindelici tantôt aux Helvètes ; ils circulèrent vraisemblablement dans cette aire géographique entre Allemagne et Suisse, voir même dans l'est de la France.
These coins are sometimes attributed to the Vindelici and sometimes to the Helvetians; they probably circulated in this geographical area between Germany and Switzerland, and even in the east of France.

Historical background
HELVETII - VINDELICI (Germania, currently South Germany)
(2nd century BC - 1st century AD)
The Vindelicians were considered to be a people of Celtic origin. They possibly controlled the headwaters of the Rhine and the region of Lake Constance and the Inn valley. Their neighbors were the Helvetii and the Boii. Their main oppidum was Brigantion (Bregenz). They were submitted only by Tiberius during the campaign of 15 BC. Strabo (IV. 3, 6; VII, 1, 5); Pliny (HN. III, 133); Tacitus (An. II, 17); Ptolemy (G. II, 12). Kruta: 69.
