| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized barbarian head facing left, rendered in the La Tène decorative tradition, with highly schematized hair depicted as flowing strands or pellets. Before the face, two superimposed pointed ringlets (annulets) are positioned in the field, serving as a characteristic decorative motif of the Parisian basin coinage. The legend VENEXTOC appears in the field, likely denoting a tribal name or magistrate. The overall treatment of the portrait is abstract, reflecting the Celtic artistic convention of reducing naturalistic forms to geometric elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The VENEXTOC legend, appearing on a small cluster of bronze issues attributed to tribes operating in the Seine basin, remains one of the more debated inscriptions in Gaulish numismatics — it may denote a personal name, a tribal designation, or a magistrate's title, and no consensus has held for long. The decade of production aligns squarely with Caesar's campaigns in northern Gaul, when local bronze coinage often continued circulating even as tribal political structures collapsed under Roman pressure.
