Commentary


Monnaie particulièrement intéressante. L'androcéphale à tête casquée est à mettre en relation avec le statère d'électrum LT. 4512.
Ce bronze est repris dans le Nouvel Atlas, tome III, n° 3715. Les auteurs précisent que ce type dérive "précisément des statères du groupe B de la série 1259 en or allié (DT. 3660 et 3662)".
Particularly interesting coin. The androcephalus with a helmeted head is to be related to the electrum stater LT. 4512. This bronze is included in the New Atlas, volume III, n° 3715. The authors specify that this type derives \\\"precisely from group B staters of the 1259 series in alloyed gold (DT. 3660 and 3662)\\\"

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.
