CELTIC GAUL. First Century B.C. AR irregular quinarius. 1.87 gm. 15 mm. Imitative of Roman Republican issue; possibly Aedui Series. Stylized head of Roma right / Horse leaping right. Cf. BMC Celtic II: 472ff. Very Fine; appealing barbarous style; irregular flan; flan chip at top.
Both this and the following piece (lot 26) were in an old French collection that we acquired many years ago. Fascinating coin.
