| 正面描述 | Stylized male head facing right, rendered in the abstracted La Tène artistic tradition. The hair is depicted as a series of flowing curves from which extend four chains, each terminating in a small human head; a baton or sceptre issues alongside the head. A bridle-bit motif occupies the lower field, serving as a decorative device characteristic of Armorican coinage. |

The Namnetes occupied the territory around the mouth of the Loire — roughly modern Loire-Atlantique — and their gold staters represent one of the westernmost expressions of the Gaulish coinage tradition derived ultimately from the Philip II Macedonian prototype. By the first century BC, that original design had undergone so many generations of stylistic abstraction that the imagery bears almost no resemblance to its source. The hippocamp-riding figure, the so-called hippophorus genie, is a distinctly Armorican development with no direct parallel in continental Gaulish issues.
DT#2185 corresponds to a relatively well-defined die group. The Namnetes were absorbed into the Roman provincial system following Caesar's Gallic campaigns, and gold coinage of this type ceased production shortly thereafter.
