| Aversbeschreibung | Highly stylized Celtic head facing right, rendered in the characteristic curvilinear La Tène artistic tradition, with prominent bulging eye and schematized facial features dissolving into abstract forms. The hair is depicted as a series of coiled and ridged elements atop the crown. Flanking the head are sinuous human-headed serpents whose bodies intertwine around the effigy. A boar, depicted in profile to the right, appears above the head as an ancillary symbol within the field. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Osismii occupied the westernmost tip of Armorica — roughly modern Finistère in Brittany — placing them at the geographic edge of the Gaulish world. Their coinage was never part of a centralized monetary authority; these staters circulated within a tribal economy that relied heavily on cross-channel trade with southwestern Britain, and stylistic parallels with certain Durotrigan and Dobunnic issues suggest those contacts were more than casual.
Billon at this weight indicates deliberate debasement from an earlier, purer silver tradition — a pattern common across Armorica in the decades bracketing Caesar's Gallic campaigns, when metal supplies grew unpredictable and tribute demands intensified.
