Description from the seller

Celtic silver coin, most likely a Gaulish imitation of a Macedonian tetradrahm, dating roughly from the 2nd–1st century BCE.

One side shows a stylized horse, a very common motif on Celtic tribal coinage derived from Greek originals.
The other side appears to show a highly abstracted head with flowing hair/wreath, another hallmark of Celtic adaptations of coins of Philip II of Macedon.

Legally bought from european auction house in 2020
