Commentary
Ce type de potin attribué aux Helvètes ou aux Eduens est assez mal classé et sous documenté.
This type of potin attributed to the Helvetians or the Aedui is rather poorly classified and under-documented.

Historical background
SEQUANI - HELVETII, Unspecified (Currently Switzerland)
(2nd - 1st century BC)
These two peoples were neighbors and a certain number of coins, particularly staters and quarter staters of electrum from the first century BC, are simultaneously attributed to them. The coin found in Avenches (east of Lake Neuchâtel), of a so-called sequana coinage, illustrates this phenomenon. Gossip of the La Tène type also belongs to this group!.
