| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylized, abstracted depiction of a quadriga galloping to the right, reduced to schematic geometric elements characteristic of late Gaulish coinage. Ball joints articulate the limbs of the horses, rendered in a fragmented, almost decorative manner. The exergue is occupied by rows of pellets or corpuscles arranged in linear registers. The overall composition reflects the progressive abstraction typical of Armorican and northern Gaulish Celtic artistic tradition. No inscriptions or legends are present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
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.
