Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Celtic and Roman influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized head of a Celtic deity, while the reverse side features the Roman goddess Victory holding a trophy and a shield. This blending of cultural styles reflects the complex history of the region, where Celtic tribes interacted and traded with Roman civilization.
