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 (front) side of the coin depicts a stylized head of the Celtic goddess Epona, while the reverse (back) side features a traditional Greek motif of a seated figure holding a scepter and a small statue of a lion. This fusion of cultural styles reflects the complex history and cultural exchange that occurred in the region during this time period.
