Beschrijving voorzijde Stylized Celtic male head facing left, surmounted by a ridged open-faced helmet rendered in schematic relief. A pelletized cross device occupies the field to the rear of the head, serving as a typical Aeduan decorative fill element. The facial features are rendered in a distinctly La Tène artistic style, with a prominent nose and simplified anatomy characteristic of late Gaulish coinage. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with the design centered within the available field. No legend or inscription is present.

Aanvullende informatie

The Aedui occupied a peculiar position in late Republican Gaul — nominally "brothers and kinsmen of the Roman people" by senatorial decree, yet minting their own coinage right up to the Caesarian conquest. That diplomatic status, unusual among Gallic tribes, did not ultimately spare them from incorporation into the province. Their billon issues reflect the broader degradation of Celtic coinage across the final pre-conquest generations, as silver content dropped progressively in response to tribute demands and inter-tribal economic pressure.

DT 3188 is among the more localized Aeduian types, with a distribution footprint concentrated around the oppidum of Bibracte.
