Description:
Celtic coins like these were made by the Dobunni tribe between 10 BC and 45 AD. These replicas were made with clay which was cut and then molded into a coin shape. A knife and toothpick were used to add details. Once the clay was set, the coins were painted with the appropriate colours.
