Quite worn, brass-ish, thin flan, diameter = 26mm

My first celtic? Can't identify this one, the bust on the obverse resembles the Celt-Iberian coins with the 'bust likened to augustus' which may indicate it's from around the founding of the empire, but the presence of the kantharos (atop some kind of pediment / altar) on the back might mean it's from an earlier period? This is all guess work though, I know virtually nothing about these coins, any ideas?  ???
