Copy of a gold stater, Iron Age, 3rd. During the third century, the Celtic people of Continental Europe began to manufacture copies of Greek gold and silver coins. These were the first coins ever made in northrn Europe. The chariot on this coin is a good reproduction of the coin of Phillip of Macedon (359-336 BCE). The Greek inscription "Philippou"- of Phillip, is correct, although writing had not yet been adopted in northern Europe. CM, 1861.5-9.2
