Description

★ Apparently unpublished and of great interest ★

CELTIC, Northwest Gaul. Senones (?). Circa 50-30 BC. Half Stater (Gold, 13 mm, 3.43 g). Convex surface with a whirl of pellets and lines near the edge. Rev. Celticized charioteer driving biga to right, holding reins in his left hand and kentron in his right; below the horse, triskeles (?). DT -, cf. 2561B-2563 (no whirl on the obverses and the reverses of differing style). Flesche -. LT -. SLM -. Apparently unpublished and of great interest. Light scratch on the obverse, otherwise, very fine.

From a Swiss collection, formed over two generations.

This interesting issue must date somewhat earlier than DT 2561B-2563, where the obverse shows no design anymore and the reverse is much more abstract.
