    This is a modern fake copying ancient Celtic copies of a reverse used by Philip II of Macedon. To the best of my knowledge no original or real ancient Celtic copy had the horse on both sides. The fabric of these looks a lot like those Gela bull coins Reader's Digest used in an ad campaign once but I do not know the source of these. I suspect they advertised a book on the Celts or something similar.
