Potin au taureau chargeant

The Bituriges Cubi, centered around Avaricum (modern Bourges), were among the Gallic tribes Caesar singled out as exceptionally wealthy in agricultural land — their territory in the Berry region produced some of the most consistent potin output in central Gaul. Potin casting rather than striking was the deliberate production method here, which accounts for the frequent casting seams and surface porosity collectors encounter on this type.

DT 3503 and 3209 represent distinct die groups within what is otherwise a long production run spanning the late independence period through early Roman occupation.
