Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 10/25/2020 08:41 am Just received a packet from Belgium and this was among my winnings. This Stater is from the Celtic Corisolites, who were active in modern-day Brittany in the late BC timeframe. @ancientnoob goes into great detail on the history of this tribe here: http://goccf.com/t/134756. Mine came attributed as DT 2332 and Scheers, Dan, 235. I see an old identification number "6" in ink between the curls of hair, but haven't been able to chase back the provenance back to a specific museum or private collection.

Normally would detract from the value a bit, but if you can establish good provenance via the "6", it may even add some value. Let's hope you can track it down. I love Amorican music and Amorican Pie - Apologies to Don McLean. Edited by sel_69l 10/25/2020 09:00 am Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 10/25/2020 4:35 pm Thx everyone! The abstract portrait is very nice on this one, but the man-headed horse is a bit off flan. The design element between the horse's legs is a lyre.
