| Reversbeschreibung | Three fish arranged in a dynamic, rotational composition around a central point, a distinctive and identifying type of the Lingones tribe as catalogued under DT 3261 and LT 8329. The fish are rendered schematically, their bodies forming a triskelion-like pattern in the field. The surrounding area is filled with pellets and curved linear elements consistent with the decorative conventions of Gaulish cast potin coinage. No legend or inscription is present, as is standard for this issue. The irregular flan edges and slightly uneven casting surfaces are characteristic of the potin casting technique employed by this Gaulish tribe. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Lingones occupied the upper Marne and Saône valleys in what is now Burgundy and Champagne, and their potin coinage was cast rather than struck — a distinction that separates Gaulish potin issues from the hammered traditions borrowed from Greek and Roman practice. Cast coins were produced in clay or stone molds arranged in strips, leaving characteristic sprue marks where individual flans broke free. The three-fish type is among the more individualistic issues attributable to this tribe, and the fish motif has been loosely connected to the river-dependent geography of Lingones territory, though no ancient source confirms any deliberate iconographic program.
