| Additional information |
The Santoni occupied the territory around modern Saintes in western Gaul, and their small fractional issues — produced in the decades immediately preceding Caesar's conquest — represent a monetary system under severe pressure. Billon at this weight is barely silver at all; the alloy degradation in late Gaulish fractions like this one reflects both economic stress and a collapsing access to Iberian silver sources as Roman commercial networks tightened around the region.
DT 3701 remains sparsely documented, with attribution to the Santoni debated in some literature.
