Commentary


L'exemplaire illustré dans le LA TOUR donne bien la légende VIREDIOS alors que notre exemplaire a nettement VIRETIOS !
Sur ce bronze, la légende est d’ailleurs complète alors qu’elle est hors flan ou fragmentaire sur la plupart des exemplaires, dont la monnaie type du Nouvel Atlas, DT. 3688.
L’exemplaire MONNAIES 41, n° 1568 a été vendu 360€.
The example illustrated in LA TOUR clearly gives the legend VIREDIOS while our example clearly has VIRETIOS! On this bronze, the legend is also complete whereas it is off-plate or fragmentary on most examples, including the type coin of the New Atlas, DT. 3688. The example MONNAIES 41, n° 1568 was sold for €360

Historical background


PICTONES / CENTER WEST, Unspecified

(1st century BC)

Several types traditionally given to the Pictons see their attribution questioned for a more general geographical area such as Center-West or Great-West of Gaul. Some also propose an attribution to a military workshop, perhaps linked to the Aedui... We must not imagine or dream of the Gallic, or even Celtic, economic space as closed. coins prove us wrong every day.
