Commentary


Ces rares drachmes avec chevaux superposés au revers sont divisées en trois séries (A pour droit et revers à droite, B pour droit et revers à gauche et C pour droit à droite et revers à gauche). Pour cette série C, l’étude de la RN 1996 ne porte que sur les six exemplaires de la BN.
Il existe une variante de buste qui ne semble pas avoir été prise en compte dans les classements ; l’exemplaire de la collection Changargnier et celui du musée de Rouen ont la particularité d’avoir une tête barbue.
These rare drachmas with horses superimposed on the reverse are divided into three series (A for obverse and reverse on the right, B for obverse and reverse on the left and C for obverse on the right and reverse on the left). For this series C, the study of the RN 1996 only concerns the six examples of the BN. There is a variant of bust which does not seem to have been taken into account in the classifications; the copy of the Changargnier collection and that of the Rouen museum have the particularity of having a bearded head.

Historical background


PICTONES / BITURIGES - MID-WESTERN, Unspecified

(2nd - 1st century BC)

Many heavy drachmas, with a rider or superimposed horses are difficult to classify. These early coins originate from the confines of Berry and Touraine; often attributed to the Pictons or the Bituriges. If the typology does not make it possible to determine an attribution to such or such people, the distribution of the discoveries is hardly more precise and the conclusions of their metallic analysis are ultimately rather disappointing..
