| Additional information |
The Carnutes occupied the territory around modern Chartres and Orléans, and held particular religious significance among the Gallic tribes — Caesar noted that their territory served as the annual gathering point for the pan-Gallic druidic assembly. This coin belongs to a period immediately following the Roman conquest, when Carnutes political authority had been effectively dismantled but local bronze production continued, likely under Roman administrative tolerance rather than genuine autonomy.
Class V distinctions within this series are established by die typology documented in Delestrée-Tache, separating it from the earlier, heavier Class I issues struck before the Gallic collapse.
