Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 09/06/2012 5:56 pm Well, it's suppose to be a Galba Denarius, RIC 167. I think it looks barbarous, but here is a link to images of RIC 167: http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/sear...tml#RIC_0167 Report this Post to the Staff
Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 09/06/2012 5:58 pm I should read the original post before I comment. You are most probably correct that it is an imitation of the Galba Denarius I mentioned. Celtic? I don't know. Perhaps. Report this Post to the Staff
