Delestrée, Classe IV, 2150 (pl. VII); Latour 6852 (pl. XXIII); De Jersey 1994, p. 60, fig. 23, IV; Scheers, Lyon, 930.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"head\"\u003eProfile on the right of Apollonian origin, hair formed by a sort of headband (reminding a laurel wreath) made of two rows of rectangular, striated locks; above and behind, flame-like bun and back; encircling the face, a row of crescent-shaped locks. Where the ears should be, two horizontal, parallel lines, coming from two strands, ends on the cheek in a triangular ornament made up of three globules. Before the forehead, a large S-shaped lock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"reverse\"\u003eWinged androcephalic horse galloping to the right, driven by a highly stylised charioteer, holding the reins in one hand and in the other, a cord passing over the horse's head and ending before it in a square divided by an X with a central pearl, reminiscent of a vexillum. Under the horse's tail, four-spoked wheel. \nBelow, a wingless figure lying to the right, holding a curved dagger in one hand and a spear in the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"comment\"\u003eRemarkable stater, known as 'with the wingless figure with two weapons' (\"au personnage aptère aux deux armes\"), coin attributed to the Aulerci Cenomani tribe, from the region of Le Mans, in western France. \nDespite minor cracks in the edge caused by the strike, a small mark on the horse and slight hairlines on the portrait, this stater is in excellent condition. We may note in particular the centering of the blank, with only the vexillum of the reverse being out of the blank, the rest of the type still being visible. This allows us to appreciate the detail of the engraving on the androcephalic horse, its very well-defined engraving lines, which indicate that the dies used for striking were fresh and minimally worn, as there are no visible die breaks. As for the portrait, whilst the Celtic style is quite distinct, the Greek origin is still perceptible in some traits, such as the eye. An example of great quality. \nDelestrée, Classe IV, 2150 (pl.
