| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized laureate head facing right, rendered in the Celtic artistic tradition derived from Hellenistic prototypes. The hair is depicted as a bold, voluminous mass of deeply relief-cut, leaf-like curls cascading behind the nape, characteristic of the Armorican Celtic style. The facial features are schematically rendered with a pronounced rounded cheek and a simplified eye. A cluster of pellets is visible before the face in the field, a typical decorative device on Cenomani coinage. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Aulerci Cenomani occupied territory roughly corresponding to the region around present-day Le Mans, and their coinage derived ultimately from the Macedonian staters of Philip II that entered Gaul through trade and mercenary payments during the third century BC. Each generation of Gaulish die-cutters abstracted the original design further, producing coins that moved progressively away from their Hellenistic source through a process numismatists sometimes call "devolution" — though the results were anything but accidental.
DT#2150 places this piece within Delestrée and Tache's classification of Armorican issues, a reference that took decades of fieldwork and hoard analysis to compile.
