Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of Celtiberian and Roman elements. The obverse side of the coin depicts a rider with a characteristic Celtic torque around his neck, while the reverse side bears the image of a Roman goddess, likely Venus or Victory, indicating the influence of Roman culture on the Celtiberian tribes in the Rhone Valley during the 1st century BC.
