| Beschrijving voorzijde | Beardless male bust facing right, the neck adorned with a torc rendered in relief. A lozenge enclosing a central pellet appears behind the nape of the neck, serving as a decorative symbol characteristic of Arvernian coinage. The legend CALIIDV is presented within a cartouche positioned in the field before the face, a distinctive epigraphic feature of this type. The portrait is executed in the stylised La Tène artistic tradition, with schematic facial features typical of late Gaulish bronze coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Arverni occupied the volcanic highlands of what is now Auvergne, and their coinage reflects a tribe that had not fully recovered its political footing after Vercingetorix's father, Celtillus, was executed by his own people for allegedly seeking kingship. The CALIIDV series — the legend likely abbreviating a personal name, possibly a magistrate or issuing authority — belongs to the final decades before Caesar's Gallic campaigns extinguished independent Arvernian minting entirely. After the defeat at Alesia in 52 BC, no further autonomous coinage was struck.
