| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylized Gallo-Belgic head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the Celtic La Tène artistic tradition. The face is schematically modeled with prominent curved lines indicating the hair, rendered as a series of arched relief strands. A crescent or lunate ornament appears above the head, and the surrounding field is adorned with scattered pellets forming a decorative pearl-like border. The facial features, including the eye and nose, are reduced to abstract geometric forms characteristic of late Iron Age Celtic coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bodiocasses were a small Gaulish people settled in the region of modern Normandy, roughly around present-day Bayeux. Their coinage output was limited, and the lyre type falls within a broader northwestern Gaulish tradition of adapting Greek and Macedonian prototypes through successive generations of stylistic abstraction — by this stage so thoroughly transformed that the original Hellenistic source is barely traceable. The DT#2284 reference places this piece within the Scheers-Delestrée typology as a distinctly local product, not a regional imitation.
Billon staters from small Gaulish tribes in this period frequently show irregular flans, a consequence of rudimentary casting preparation rather than die failure.
