    Fantastic! I find that Celtic coins have an inherent mystery and allure to them that is hard to match with very few other fields of our hobby. Lovely examples too.

    What a fascinating video, I just found your channel and will enjoy watching your videos. I found a Dobunni quarter stater a few months ago up near Leominster (sun burst little horse type) and I absolutely love it, thank you for sharing your knowledge 😁👍

    Quality video!! I think there’s a lot to learn from these coins then maybe more suggests. The repetition of horses and wheels for example certainly points towards a work-based, ‘living off the land’ culture in this era. Even the importance of the horse as a symbol brings up questions as to why it’s viewed as more important than perhaps a portrait of a ruler or (if one ever existed) a symbol to represent the tribes. Great coins and very informative once again, thank you!

    • @TheHammeredCorner

      Thank you Tom, I totally agree! I think the simplicity must have meant a lot back then, back when tools and knowledge was limited. What a fantastic comment mate! 🤓🧐

    Iron age coins are so beautifull and I love the abstract art work. I did find a gallo-belgic quarter stater once but it was sadly burgled from me. The image quality in your videos is great - very crisp (despite the finger shake!)

    They look uncirculated. I wonder what was the purpose of coins that were not used as money ? At the time, (1st century BC) the Romans controlled most of Europe, so maybe the Celtic rulers were trying to emulate the Roman rulers.
