Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Celtic and Greek influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized horse, which was a symbol of power and strength in Celtic culture, while the reverse side features a rendition of the Greek goddess Athena, highlighting the cultural exchange and blending that occurred during this time period.
