Émission épigraphe. Ce dauphin est un témoignage à la frontière entre Numismatique et Archéologie. Considéré comme pré-monétaire, ce type d’objet a pu être utilisé par des populations celtes au contact du monde grec à un moment où la monnaie ne s’est pas encore imposée. Dimensions (longueur 21 mm ; largeur 8 mm). Au droit notre exemplaire semble aussi porter une inscription avec une nageoire visible. Les exemplaires avec inscription sont beaucoup plus rares que les anépigraphes. L’un des seuls que nous ayons proposés a fait 275 € sur une offre maximum à 300 € avec treize ordres dans MONNAIES XXIV, n° 50.
Epigraph issue. This dolphin is a testimony at the border between Numismatics and Archaeology. Considered as pre-monetary, this type of object could have been used by Celtic populations in contact with the Greek world at a time when coin had not yet become established. Dimensions (length 21 mm; width 8 mm). On the obverse, our example also seems to bear an inscription with a visible fin. Examples with inscriptions are much rarer than anepigraphs. One of the only ones we offered made €275 on a maximum offer of €300 with thirteen orders in MONNAIES XXIV, n° 50
