| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized helmeted head facing left, rendered in the La Tène artistic tradition. The chin bears a small goatee formed by a twisted, curvilinear treatment, and the eye is depicted as a prominent ring-shaped pellet. The letter S appears in the field before the face. The entire design is contained within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Suessiones occupied the Aisne valley in what Caesar described as one of the most powerful polities in Belgic Gaul — their king Diviciacus had reportedly held sway over Britain as well, though that claim is difficult to corroborate archaeologically. This bronze type falls squarely within the period of Roman conquest and its immediate aftermath, when tribal minting in the region collapsed or transformed rapidly under military and administrative pressure. The CRICIRV inscription likely preserves a magistrate's or issuer's name, a practice the Belgic tribes borrowed selectively from Roman monetary convention.
