| 裏面の説明 | A biga (two-horse chariot) driven to the right by a charioteer, rendered in a schematized La Tène Celtic style derived from the reverse of Philip II of Macedon gold staters. The horses are depicted in vigorous motion, their bodies reduced to bold, globular forms. The charioteer holds the reins and is shown frontally or in partial view above the chariot body. The exergue bears the Greek inscription ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΥ, a vestige of the Macedonian prototype from which this coinage ultimately derives. Scattered pellets, annulets, and stylized ornamental elements fill the field around the chariot group. |

The charioteer stater types of Gallia Celtica derive ultimately from the gold staters of Philip II of Macedon, which flooded westward through trade and mercenary payments during the late 4th century BC. Celtic die-cutters progressively abstracted the Macedonian prototype over generations, dissolving the original figural composition into something barely recognizable — a process of deliberate artistic transformation, not degradation. The half-stater denomination saw even more radical treatment, compressed into a smaller flan that forced further abbreviation of already fragmentary imagery.
The DT 3286 attribution remains approximate. Tribal assignment within Celtica for uninscribed gold fractions of this period is largely hypothetical.
