| Beschrijving voorzijde | Essentially plain, convex field with a highly stylized lyre motif rendered in schematic form near the lower centre of the flan. The design is characteristic of the abstract Celtic artistic tradition, with the lyre reduced to minimal linear elements. The surrounding field is unadorned, bearing no legend or border, and the irregular flan edge is typical of hand-struck Belgic coinage of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Menapii were a Belgic tribe occupying the lower Rhine estuary and coastal Flanders, one of the few peoples Caesar explicitly noted as having never sent envoys to him during the Gallic Wars — a pointed act of defiance that cost them repeated punitive campaigns between 56 and 53 BC. Their coinage reflects the broader fragmentation of Gaulish monetary production during this period of Roman encroachment, with gold staters deriving ultimately from Macedonian prototypes that had filtered north through decades of mercenary service and trade.
LT#8744 is among the less frequently traded Belgic attributions in the Delmonte corpus.
