| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized horse bounding to the left, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner with disjointed body elements characteristic of Parisii coinage. A curved fillet or torque-like ornament floats above the horse's body in the upper field. Beneath and between the horse's legs, a floral motif is depicted alongside five globules arranged in a circular pattern, filling the field in typical Gaulish decorative fashion. The overall composition is dynamic yet highly schematic, reflecting the progressive abstraction of the Macedonian gold stater prototype over successive generations of Celtic die-cutting. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Parisii occupied the Île de la Seine — the settlement that would become Paris — and their gold staters were in active production during the decade Gaul fell to Caesar. The wolf-tooth border classification system used by modern scholars to sequence these issues reflects genuine die evolution, not mere decoration: the tooth count and regularity shifted as different workshops or die-cutters took over production, giving numismatists a rough chronological framework within an otherwise underdocumented tribal coinage.
Caesar's Gallic Wars effectively ended Parisii minting. The tribe participated in Vercingetorix's coalition at Alesia in 52 BC.
