Celtic Silver Quniarius of Kaletedes

We have a small number of these Celtic silver Quinarius available dating from ca. 120-50 BC. They are from the Central Gaul region issued by Kaletedes of the Lingones (The Jumpers), who were a Gallic tribe of the Iron Age and Roman periods. They dwelled in the region surrounding the present-day city of Langres (Civitas Lingonum) which is named after the Gallic tribe. The coins have a Celticised head of Roma on the obverse which was widely used on Roman Republican coins of the period. The reverse shows a horse galloping left with KAΛ above and Δ below. The denomination is a quinarius which was half of a denarius. They grade about very fine for this issue. Only five of these coins are available.
