Commentary
Cet exemplaire de la classe 17a offre un état de conservation suffisant pour pouvoir en définir les principales caractéristiques de la classe. Sur notre pièce, l’astre placé devant le cheval semble se rattacher au corps de l’animal.
This example of class 17a is in a state of preservation sufficient to be able to define the main characteristics of the class. On our coin, the star placed in front of the horse seems to be attached to the body of the animal.

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.
