Commentary
Ces statères ont souvent une multitude de petits astres et annelets qui ornent le champ du droit et du revers, qui pourraient constituer autant de variantes...
Cet exemplaire présente des types complets et bien homogènes, avec tous les motifs secondaires bien visibles autour du cheval.
These staters often have a multitude of small stars and rings which decorate the obverse and reverse fields, which could constitute as many variants... This example presents complete and very homogeneous types, with all the secondary motifs clearly visible around the horse

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.
