| Beschrijving keerzijde | A broad linear cross divides the reverse field into four quadrants, a design derived from the wheel or cross motif common in Gaulish silver coinage of this period. Three prominent globules or pellets are distributed across three of the four quadrants, with the lower-left quadrant bearing a series of parallel oblique lines in place of a pellet. The overall composition is stark and geometric, reflecting the stylistic abstraction characteristic of late Gaulish tribal issues. No legend or inscription is present. The flan is irregular with characteristic die-cutting marks of hand-struck hammered coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cadurci were a Gallic tribe occupying the Quercy region, the area around modern Cahors, whose resistance to Roman expansion culminated in their siege by Caesar's lieutenants during the Gallic Wars. Coinage of this type belongs to the broader tradition of Gaulish silver struck in the late La Tène period, when tribal mints produced issues that diverged sharply from their Mediterranean prototypes through successive generations of stylistic abstraction.
LT 3258 is classified within Blanchet and de La Tour's foundational typology, though die studies on Cadurci silver remain less systematic than for better-documented tribes of the Loire valley.
