Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Celtic and Roman influences in its design. The bust facing right with a small module is a distinctly Roman style, while the use of gold and the involvement of Gallia Belgica tribes suggests a strong Celtic presence. This blending of cultures is a fascinating aspect of the coin's history and speaks to the complex cultural dynamics of the time period.
