Beschrijving voorzijde Stylized laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the characteristic Gallo-Celtic artistic tradition derived from Macedonian prototypes. The hair is depicted as a series of bold, rounded pellets and lenticular locks radiating from the crown, giving the effigy a highly abstracted, plastic quality. The facial features — eye, nose, and chin — are summarily but powerfully modeled in high relief. The field is plain, with no legend or inscription. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of hammered Celtic coinage of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

The Aulerci Cenomani occupied territory roughly corresponding to the modern Sarthe department, with their principal center at Vindinum — present-day Le Mans. Their coinage tradition borrowed heavily from Armorican and Belgic prototypes while developing a distinctly local idiom. By the mid-first century BC, coin production among the Cenomani was likely already disrupted or curtailed by Caesar's Gallic campaigns, making pieces from the later end of this date range increasingly scarce.

DT 2155 is among the lighter fractional gold issues attributed to this civitas, struck at roughly a quarter the weight of the full stater series.
