| Reversbeschreibung | A rooster standing right with wings fully outstretched, its chest and abdomen replaced by a stylized human head, exemplifying the zoomorphic-anthropomorphic hybrid imagery typical of Bellovaci bronze coinage. Before the bird, a whirling star with rounded arms and a pointed center is depicted, surmounted by a pointed annulet. The composition reflects the dynamic, fantastical iconography of the late Gaulish artistic tradition. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Bellovaci were among the most powerful of the Belgic tribes — Caesar rated them the foremost in military strength of all the Belgae, capable of fielding 100,000 warriors by his own account. Their territory centered on the Oise valley, and their coinage continued to be struck even as Roman administrative pressure dismantled tribal minting across most of Gaul after the conquest of 52 BC. This issue belongs to that compressed post-conquest window when indigenous bronze production persisted in the northwest longer than almost anywhere else.
Cross-referenced as DT#509 and LT#8584, the type falls within a well-documented Bellovaci series but individual die linkages remain only partially studied.
