Descrizione del rovescio	Uniface issue; the reverse is entirely plain and uninscribed, presenting a smooth, slightly convex gold flan with no design, legend, or decorative element. The surface exhibits the characteristic hammered texture of Celtic coinage of this period, with minor flow lines resulting from the striking process.

Informazioni aggiuntive	The Durocasses were a Gallic people centered around present-day Dreux, in the Eure-et-Loir. Their coinage is among the thinner-documented series in the Celtic Gaulish corpus, and uniface staters — struck on one die only, leaving the reverse blank or showing only the flan's surface — reflect either a deliberate regional minting convention or a pragmatic shortcut during periods of disrupted production, possibly accelerated by Caesar's campaigns pushing through northern Gaul after 58 BC. DT#2562 is documented but specimens are infrequent in trade, the Durocasses having struck in comparatively small volume relative to neighboring peoples such as the Carnutes.
