Commentary


Ce bronze épigraphe VIRIIT constitue une copie du type et de la légende de la monnaie VIREDIOS, LT 4473. La légende est particulièrement bien visible sur cet exemplaire. Monnaie ne nous semblant pas excessivement rare mais curieusement absente de la grande majorité des musées publics publiés.

Historical background


PICTONES / CENTER WEST, Unspecified

(1st century BC)

Several types traditionally given to the Pictons see their attribution questioned for a more general geographical area such as Center-West or Great-West of Gaul. Some also propose an attribution to a military workshop, perhaps linked to the Aedui... We must not imagine or dream of the Gallic, or even Celtic, economic space as closed. coins prove us wrong every day.
