Denier with helmeted head CVBIO

Descrizione del dritto	Stylized male head facing left in the Gallic artistic tradition, wearing a helmet whose base is rendered in beaded relief. The facial features — eye, nose, and lips — are sharply pointed and schematically rendered, characteristic of late La Tène Celtic coinage. Sideburns and the neck area are also delineated by rows of beading, imparting a highly decorative, linear quality to the effigy. The overall style reflects the abstracted portraiture common to the Nitiobroges tribe of Southwestern Gaul.

Descrizione del rovescio	A horse depicted in motion to the left, rendered in the stylized Celtic manner typical of Gaulish silver coinage. The legend CVBIO appears above the horse's croup, serving as the principal inscription attributing this issue to the Nitiobroges. A torc — a sacred neck-ring of great symbolic importance in Celtic culture — is placed between the horse's legs, occupying the lower field. The composition is sparse, with the horse and torc filling the flan in a dynamic yet schematic arrangement characteristic of late La Tène numismatic art.
