| Aversbeschreibung | Stylized laureate head facing right, rendered in the characteristic La Tène Celtic artistic tradition. The hair is rendered in elaborate, deeply incised flowing locks and volute-like curls radiating from the crown, with abundant tresses cascading behind the neck. Facial features are schematically modeled with a prominent brow and rounded cheek. A decorative rinceau scroll motif is depicted in the field before the mouth, a distinctive typological element of this Riedones series. |

| Reversbeschreibung | An androcephalous horse — a horse bearing a human head — advancing to the right, guided by a charioteer figure positioned above who holds the reins and a whip. The composition is executed in the abstracted, disjointed Celtic style typical of Armorican coinage, with body parts rendered as separate schematic elements. Between the legs of the horse, a four-spoked wheel with a clearly defined central hub occupies the lower field, serving as a solar or votive symbol characteristic of Gaulish iconography. The overall field is unlettered. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Riedones were a Gaulish tribe occupying the territory around modern Rennes, and their coinage sequence reflects the gradual silver debasement that afflicted most Armorican issues across the first century BC. By Class IV, the billon alloy had dropped substantially from earlier staters, a pattern consistent with mounting tribute demands and the economic disruption that preceded — and accompanied — Caesar's Gallic campaigns.
DT#2314 places this class within a die study that distinguishes it from Class III primarily through reverse die morphology rather than weight or alloy alone.
