Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Celtic and Greek influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a Celtic warrior, while the reverse side features a Greek-style owl, symbolizing wisdom and insight. This fusion of cultural elements reflects the complex history of the Boii tribe, who were known for their interactions and trade with neighboring cultures.
