Commentary
Cette rare émission n’est apparu que récemment dans la littérature et sur le marché ! Toutes les provenances semblent indiquer une origine proche de l’oppidum d‘Enserune. Les auteurs du Dicomon font remarquer que le style du droit est difficilement compatible avec la datation haute proposée en 2000 par A. Chevillon.
Selon l’orientation du revers, la légende TVII est normale en commençant au premier canton.

Historical background
GALLIA - NEDENES (oppidum of Montlaures)
(2nd - 1st century BC)
This small people is neither cited by Ptolemy nor by Strabo any more than by Caesar. He must have belonged to the more general group of Longostaletes, in the region between Narbonne and Béziers. It is the recent excavations, carried out over the past thirty years, which have made it possible to restore to the oppida of Montlaurès and Ensérune the importance they had acquired between the creation of the province of Narbonnaise, in 118 BC. C., and the end of the Gallic Wars.
