Commentary
Ici, les deux annelets périphériques semble s’être rapprochés de l'annelet central qui surmonte la hampe et en sont solidaires.
Here, the two peripheral rings seem to have moved closer to the central ring which surmounts the stem and are attached to it.

Historical background
GALLIA BELGICA - LEUCI (Area of Toul)

The Leuques are mentioned only once in the Gallic Wars. Their neighbors were the Médiomatriques, the Lingons and the Séquanes. The Leuques as well as the Séquanes and the Lingones provided Caesar with wheat when the Roman army stopped at Vesontio (Besançon) to refuel before facing the Germans of Ariovistus (58 BC). Caesar (BG. I, 40).
