Mentioning Tasciovanus reminded me of the rose gold quarter I dug last year.
First coinage, circa 25-20 BC. Crossed wreaths; two crescents at center, pellets and pellet-in-annulets at ends, teardrop in each quarter / Celticized horse right; cornucopiae below, ornaments around. 220 in Spinks coins of England. EF. Rose gold.
