| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylized, abstracted head facing right in the characteristic Celtic artistic idiom, with a prominent volute motif positioned before the face and a so-called 'fruit' element rendered in relief before the chin. A distinctive wolf-tooth decorative band runs beneath the neck truncation, serving as the defining feature of this Class V attribution. The facial features are rendered in a schematic, curvilinear manner typical of late Gaulish coinage derived from Macedonian prototypes, with the hair dissolved into flowing pellet-and-arc patterns. |

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.
