A potin coin is one cast out of bronze. A passage I nicked.
One of the most rewarding, most fascinating and most economical series of Celtic coins to collect is the bronze and potin coins of Gaul. All you need is a modest monthly budget and one good book to guide you. Bronze Coins of Gaul is that one good book.
I guess they are of Celtic or Gaul origin or something?
I dont know anything really about how they came to be or their strict use but this is what one is. How did google not help you? I just put "Potin coin" into it and the first 4 links that came up gave me the info you see here. :p
