| Reversbeschreibung | A single horse trotting left, depicted in a highly stylized Celtic idiom with the body rendered in elegant curvilinear forms and the legs separated into abstracted elements. Above the horse, a charioteer figure is schematically indicated by a series of curved and linear motifs. In the lower field, a lyre is prominently displayed, flanked by a rosette or wheel symbol to the right and vertical line ornaments to the left, all rendered in the distinctive La Tène decorative vocabulary. The flan is irregular, consistent with hand-struck Celtic coinage, and no legend is present. |

The Arverni occupied the volcanic uplands of what is now the Auvergne and were, by the mid-second century BC, arguably the most powerful single polity in Gaul. Their political dominance peaked under Bituitus, whose catastrophic defeat by the Romans at the Battle of the Vindalium in 121 BC ended Arvernian hegemony south of the Cévennes. These staters were likely produced across precisely that period of rise and collapse, and the gold itself probably derived from alluvial sources in the Allier and Dore river systems — Strabo specifically notes the region's gold-bearing streams.
Production almost certainly ceased before Caesar's campaigns, making the 60 BC terminus a reasonable outside boundary rather than an active minting date.
