Commentary
Le droit est bien centré, montrant le rameau. Le cheval du revers semble avoir une démarche de parade, comme sur certains deniers de Gaule Chevelue (NERCOD par exemple).
The obverse is well centered, showing the branch. The horse on the reverse seems to have a parade gait, as on certain denarii from Hairy Gaul (NERCOD for example)
