Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique plant design on the obverse (front) side, which is believed to represent a Celtic deity or symbol of importance. The use of plants in Celtic art and symbolism was common during this time period, and it's fascinating to see how these designs have been preserved on coins like this one.
