正面描述 Stylized Celtic male head facing right, rendered in the characteristically abstracted La Tène artistic tradition. The flowing hair is depicted as a series of parallel curved lines sweeping back from the face, surmounted by an elaborate crest of swirling vegetal scrollwork and trumpet curves. The facial features are schematically rendered, with a prominent eye indicated by a circular pellet motif and a jutting chin. A row of pellets forms a partial border along the right field, and additional curvilinear ornamental elements fill the surrounding field in typical Armorican Celtic style.

背面描述 Disjointed horse figure moving to the right in the highly abstracted Celtic manner derived ultimately from a Greek prototype. The horse's body is rendered as a series of disconnected curvilinear elements, with a prominent rounded torso, a lash-like tail, and splayed limbs reduced to stylized linear strokes. A charioteer or driver figure appears above, fragmented into geometric and scroll forms. Annulet-and-pellet symbols and additional curvilinear ornaments fill the field above and below the horse, including a prominent wheel or rosette motif beneath the animal. An arc of triangular or lunate elements borders the lower portion of the design, characteristic of Coriosolitan coinage of Class Vb/VI.

附加信息

The Coriosolites occupied the territory around modern-day Côtes-d'Armor in Armorica, and their coinage is among the most systematically studied of all Gaulish silver series. Rybot's classification — later refined by Gruel and Morin — divided Coriosolitic staters into classes based on stylistic degeneration from earlier, more naturalistic prototypes, placing Class Vb and VI at a late stage in that sequence.

These coins were almost certainly struck in the years immediately preceding Caesar's Gallic campaigns, and a significant hoard — the massive Le Câtillon deposit on Jersey, containing tens of thousands of Armorican coins — suggests emergency concealment around the time of the Roman conquest of the region circa 56 BC.
