| Aversbeschreibung | Stylized bust of a helmeted head facing right, rendered in the Gallo-Belgic Celtic tradition. A distinctive ringlet or curl appears in the field before the eye, and a second ringlet is positioned before the mouth, characteristic decorative elements of the Durocasses coinage. The modeling of the face is schematic, with plastic relief typical of late La Tène-period bronze issues. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A horse advancing to the right, depicted in a schematic Celtic style with exaggerated anatomical features. A palm branch is shown surmounting the horse above its back. Two crescents appear in the field before the horse at the level of its legs, serving as characteristic symbolic fillers. The surrounding field is decorated with circular graining, a common ornamental device on Durocasses bronze coinage. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Durocasses were a Gaulish people centered around modern Dreux, in the Eure-et-Loir. Their bronze coinage was struck during the decade bracketed by Caesar's campaigns in Gaul — the same years that saw the tribe absorbed, along with its neighbors, into the grinding machinery of Roman pacification. Whether this issue predates submission or overlaps with it is difficult to establish precisely, but production almost certainly ceased with the consolidation of Roman administrative control over the region around 50 BC.
