Commentary
Exemplaire hybride associant un droit de la classe 17 avec un revers de la classe 6. Semble complètement inédit et non répertorié. Manque aux principaux ouvrages consultés. Vue la richesse et l’étendue du monnayage, de nombreuses variétés restent encore à découvrir.
Hybrid example combining a Class 17 obverse with a Class 6 reverse. Appears to be completely unpublished and unlisted. Missing from the main works consulted. Given the richness and extent of the coinage, many varieties remain to be discovered.

Historical background
GALLIA BELGICA - REMI (Area of Reims)
(2nd - 1st century BC)
The Remi were one of the most powerful peoples of Gaul and loyal allies of the Romans. The territory of the Rèmes extended over present-day Champagne, along the Aisne. They had for neighbors the Atuatuci, the Treveri, the Mediomatrics, the Lingones, the Suessions, the Bellovaci and the Nervians. They denounced to Caesar the coalition of Belgian peoples of 57 BC which included the Suessions who shared the same laws and the same magistrates. Their main oppidum was Bibrax. The capital of the civitas in Gallo-Roman times was Durocortorum (Reims). Caesar (BG. II, 3-5, 7, 12; III, 11; V, 3, 24, 53, 54, 56; VI, 4, 12, 44; VII, 63, 90; VIII, 6, 11) . Strabo (G. IV, 3, 5). Kruta: 70, 313-314, 366.
