Republic denarius
(1/1)
Odoacer:
Dear members,
I can't find this denarius from the republic. Who can help? It could be a celtic imitation, if so what proto type?
Thank you
Best regards
Jeroen

Looks like a Geto-Dacian hybrid. The reverse has a Triga instead of a quadriga so that may help. I think the X on the reverse is supposed to be the spokes from the wheel.
Here's a similar one:

Thank you Jay, I agree. Apart from the triga another interesting deatil is the trident. We will probably never know what the engraver was intending....
