Potin with bucranium

正面描述	Central bucranium (ox skull) depicted frontally, flanked on each side by an S-shaped motif, with a single globule placed between the horns. Above the bucranium rises a plume or crest composed of a series of stacked semicircles, surmounted by a globule, imparting a stylized, decorative quality characteristic of Gaulish cast potin coinage. The entire design is encircled by a peripheral bead border.

附加信息	The Remi were a Belgic tribe whose territory centered on what is now Reims — a city that still bears their name. They occupy an unusual place in Gallic history: during Caesar's campaigns beginning in 58 BC, the Remi sided with Rome rather than joining the broader Belgic resistance, a calculation that spared their settlements from the destruction visited on neighboring peoples. Whether that alliance influenced the continuation of their local coinage, or interrupted it entirely, remains debated. Potin alloy — cast rather than struck — was common among northeastern Gallic tribes during this period, a production method that leaves these pieces with characteristically rough surfaces and variable module.
