| Aversbeschreibung | Stylized anthropomorphic head facing right, rendered in the La Tène artistic tradition. The coiffure is dominated by two large parallel ridges or rollers arching above the brow, with a third roller at the nape of the neck; a cross motif is incorporated within the hair. The neck is rendered as a beaded triangle, and a series of beaded cordons encircle the head. A small severed head is depicted in the field before the face, a characteristic apotropaic motif of Armorican Celtic coinage. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Androcephalic horse prancing to the left, depicted in a highly stylized Celtic manner. Between the legs of the horse, a tent- or lyre-shaped ornamental device is prominently rendered. Above the croup, a severed head is shown, its terminal element forming a cross that functions as a goad or stimulus directed toward the chest of the horse. Additional decorative pellets and linear elements populate the field, consistent with Armorican Osismian stater typology. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Osismii occupied the westernmost tip of Armorica — roughly the Finistère peninsula of modern Brittany — placing them at the geographic edge of the Gaulish world. Their coinage, produced in the final decades before Caesar's campaigns dismantled tribal political structures across the region, shows strong influence from cross-Channel contact with British minting traditions, which accounts for the highly abstracted idiom their dies employ. Electrum composition at this weight class signals prestige issue rather than routine exchange.
The DT 2209–2212 grouping covers several die variants; attributing any single piece precisely within that range requires careful comparison of the reverse field arrangement.
