Arverni coinage

Arverni coinage refers to the currency produced by the Arverni tribe, a prominent Celtic society in ancient Gaul (modern-day France). These coins, dating from around the 2nd century BCE, often feature distinctive designs such as stylized animals, geometric patterns, and inscriptions. They served as a means of trade and a symbol of the tribe’s identity and sovereignty. Crafted in silver or bronze, Arverni coins reflect a high level of craftsmanship and cultural expression, providing valuable insights into their economy, art, and societal organization during that period.
