| 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. |

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.
