Notes: Of distinctly Celtic Style, likely from the lower Danube region where Celts often interacted through trade with the Greeks. The types of Alexander would have been all too familiar to the Celts as a result of this trade and for centuries minted their own coins struck in the style of Alexanders Tetradrachms. Struck from a somewhat worn reverse die, otherwise, very fine.
