Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element - a trefoil, which is a three-leafed motif that was commonly used in ancient Celtic art and symbolism. The use of the trefoil on this coin reflects the cultural influence of the Celts in the region where it was minted, Gallia Aquitania (present-day southwestern France).
