Notes (courtesy of Yurii P):
This seems to be class II stater of Unelli (group N of series Z in John Hooker's classification) -- imitation of Coriosolite staters by a neighboring Armorica tribe. Just like other billon staters of this type it was probably minted c. 58-56 BC, before or during Viridovix stand off with Roman invaders of Julius Caesar. http://www.writer2001.com/exp0012.htmEB

Ultimately, style is the key determination with this series. Many distinguishing characteristics of ornamentation are best regarded as “usually the case” because there are seemingly endless exceptions to the rule with most of the distinguishing characteristics.
