Abstract (cited)
[FR] Une révision des monnayages armoricains a permis d’isoler une série en or, peu connue, caractérisée au droit par une tête entourée de cordons perlés et d’une accolade allant de la base du cou jusqu’à hauteur du nez, et au revers par un motif floral sous le cheval androcéphale. Deux groupes sont distingués. Sur huit exemplaires recensés, six ont été analysés : les résultats confirment le schéma général d’altération de l’or que nous avons récemment proposé. Il pourrait s’agir d’un monnayage ethnique à l’existence relativement brève, et pour lequel on propose, en dépit du petit nombre de provenances, une origine vendéenne.
[EN] Armorican coinage : a series of gold staters from “Vendée”.
A conspectus of Armorican coinage has given us an opportunity to identify a little known gold series the characteristics of which are : on the obverse, a head surrounded by cordons of pearls and a triple or quadruple bracket from the neck to the nose ; on the reverse, a flower motif beneath the human-headed horse. Two groups can be distinguished. Out of the eight coins recorded six were analysed : the results correspond to our recent general view about the alteration of gold. Even if few finds have been localized, we suggest that this perhaps short-lived coinage could have been produced by a tribe from the South of the Loire, perhaps in the north of Vendée.
