Lot no. 149
GAULE - CELTIC Upper Seine valley. Boar pot, class I with bald head ND (late 2nd century - early 1st century BC). Bald head to left. Rv. Signed boar left, bristles bristling, with three small arches set between the legs. LT. missing - DT.228 - IDF POT 9, cf. p.507 ; Potin - 3,93 g - 18 mm - 5 h With two traces of shearing of the blank cast in strings. With a black patina. Superb. The reverse of the boar sign with motifs between the legs has sometimes led to this potin being associated with the large set attributed to the Leucans. 140 potins of this type with a bald head have been studied, with an average weight of 3.52 g: the site of La Villeneuve-au-Châtelot yielded no less than 50 examples, that of Villemaure-sur-Vanne 34 and that of Rouilly-Saint-Loup 27. This potin is thought to have originated in the upper Seine valley.
