Commentary
L’aspect lisse du droit vient du coin et non de l’état de conservation. La classe 11 n’était pas répertoriée dans le Traité de S. Scheers en 1977. Quatre exemplaires étaient recensés par J.-M. Doyen en 1987.
The smooth appearance of the obverse comes from the die and not from the state of preservation. Class 11 was not listed in S. Scheers's 1977 Treatise. Four examples were listed by J.-M. Doyen in 1987.

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.
