| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylised and dislocated head facing left, rendered in the characteristic Celtic abstract manner through an assemblage of large juxtaposed comma-shaped pellets and curved relief elements. The facial features are dissolved into a series of bold, schematic lobes with no clear boundary between hair and face, reflecting the advanced decorative abstraction typical of southwestern Gaulish coinage. No legend or inscription is present in the field. |

The Elusates were a Aquitanian tribe settled around the Gers valley in what is now southwest France, and their coinage sits at a fascinating crossroads — influenced by Greek monetary traditions filtering up through Massalia while retaining distinctly regional stylistic tendencies that grew increasingly abstracted over successive emissions. By the later issues of this series, the iconographic source material had been so thoroughly reinterpreted through local die-cutting conventions that the original prototypes are barely traceable.
LT 3587 places this type firmly within the Latour classification for Aquitanian silver, a corpus that remains one of the less systematically updated in Celtic numismatics.
