| 正面描述 | Stylized helmeted head facing right, rendered in the characteristic schematic Celtic artistic tradition. The helmet is depicted with flowing, decorative cresting elements curving prominently behind the head. The facial features are summarily executed, with a pellet eye and a pronounced jaw line. The neck and lower portion of the head are framed by a simplified decorative border, with the overall composition filling the irregularly shaped flan. |

| 背面描述 | A hippocampus — the mythological sea-horse — depicted facing left in a dynamic, stylized Celtic rendering, with the forelegs raised and the fish-tail curling beneath the body. The creature's mane and body markings are rendered with dotted and linear ornamental detailing typical of Allobrogian coinage. A dotted border frames the design along the coin's periphery. The composition is energetic and fills the irregular flan, reflecting the expressive abstraction characteristic of late La Tène Gaulish coinage. |

The Allobroges occupied the territory between the Rhône and Isère rivers, a strategically critical corridor that Rome had controlled as the province of Gallia Transalpina since 121 BC. Despite being thoroughly within Roman administrative reach, the tribe continued striking their own silver coinage — a practice tolerated by Rome so long as local economies functioned and taxes flowed. The hippocampus type is one of the more distinctive Allobrogian issues, almost certainly influenced by Greek coastal coinage absorbed through trade networks running up the Rhône valley from Massalia.
The dating places this issue squarely within the years preceding Caesar's Gallic campaigns, when Allobrogian political loyalty was visibly unstable — the tribe had attempted revolt against Rome as recently as 61 BC.
