Sorry not that one. The coin that is on numista that is very close to mine has a picture uploaded.

The date range for this guess is pretty much correct and yet this is not my coin.

I see we still have questions left to ask.
And I noticed Those to guesses were on the same page of Numista.
So is this coin on that same page?
I have no idea what I'm talking about But thought I would ask

I think we still have some questions left.

Is the mass of your type of coin, as referenced in Numista, greater than 7.0 grams?

That's probably what is going on, we all know there is a conspiracy against me.

I'm calling for a full House and Senate investigation and I'm looking for a whistle-blower!

The southern portion of the Iberian peninsula would have been called Celts by the Roman but we're not ethnically Celtic plus Ancient Hispania would probably include any coin mint on the Iberian peninsula. There are only a few that aren't silver and have a date range before 30 bc

I count three that are (a) not silver, (b) in the range 200-100 B.C. and (c) well over 7 grams, on that page.
