Comment
SLM 697ffInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Tetradrachm coin from Taurisci is that it features a unique blend of Celtic and Greek artistic styles. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized head of the Celtic goddess Epona, while the reverse side features a rendition of the Greek goddess Athena. This fusion of artistic styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between the Celts and Greeks during this time period.
