Beschrijving keerzijde Three crosslets arranged in a triangular formation occupy the central field, flanked on either side by curved lines that frame the composition. Above the crosslets, three pellets are disposed in a triangular cluster. The ground line at the base is composed of a series of short vertical strokes, a common convention in Gaulish potin reverse designs. The overall layout is geometric and schematic, characteristic of the late La Tène period coinage of the Durocasses tribe.

Aanvullende informatie

The Durocasses were a minor Gallic people centered around modern Dreux, in the Eure-et-Loir. Their potin coinage — cast rather than struck, distinguishing it immediately from the hammered silver of neighboring larger tribes — circulated during the decades of Roman encroachment that culminated in Caesar's conquest of 58–51 BC. DT 2508a is distinguished from the base 2508 type by the crosslet arrangement, a subtle die-level variation that Delrieu and Tache use to argue for at least two distinct production episodes within the type.
