Drachm Alexander III Type

Celtic imitations of Alexander III tetradrachms and drachms spread across Central and Eastern Europe for generations after the originals circulated, with local workshops progressively abstracting the prototype until the imagery became almost unrecognizable. The drachm module was far less commonly imitated than the tetradrachm, making surviving examples relatively scarce. Attribution to a specific tribe or region often proves impossible — "Uncertain Eastern European Celts" is an honest admission of the limits of current scholarship rather than a cataloging failure.
