Tetradrachm Faithful Legend Type

This type belongs to the broad tradition of Celtic coinage derived from the Philip II Macedonian tetradrachm, but the "Faithful Legend" designation marks it as an unusually conservative imitation — one that retained legible traces of the original Greek inscription long after most Celtic die-cutters had reduced it to abstract decoration. That restraint in abstraction likely places it earlier within the typological sequence, though the two-century attribution window reflects genuine scholarly uncertainty about the tribal origin and precise region of production.
