Beschrijving keerzijde A bridled horse advancing left in typical Gaulish schematic style, its body rendered with simplified linear and pellet decoration. A reversed delta symbol (Δ inverted) is positioned beneath the horse, between its legs, serving as a tribal or workshop control mark. Pellet ornaments appear in the field around the horse. The legend KALETEDOY runs in the field, referencing a Lingonian tribal name or magistrate, characteristic of late Gaulish coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The Lingones occupied territory in what is now the Haute-Marne and Côte-d'Or departments of eastern France, positioned between the Sequani and the Senones. Their silver quinarii belong to a regionally distinct coinage tradition that diverged from the heavier Gaulish issues further west, likely reflecting closer commercial contact with the Roman provincial economy filtering up through the Rhône corridor. The reversed delta in the KALETEDOY legend is not a copying error — it appears consistently across the type, suggesting it was an intentional local letterform rather than a die engraver's mistake.
