Beschrijving keerzijde A horse shown in full gallop to the right, rendered in the stylised abstract manner characteristic of Vindelician Celtic coinage; the body is depicted with exaggerated curvature and bold pellet detailing along the spine and haunches. Above the horse, a triangle with a pellet in each corner echoes the motif found on the obverse. The flan is irregular and the design fills the available surface without any inscription or legend.

Aanvullende informatie

The Vindelici were a Celtic tribal confederation occupying the region north of the Alps roughly between the Lech and Inn rivers, and their fractional gold coinage is among the most enigmatic in the pre-Roman Celtic world. These minuscule struck pieces derived their typological ancestry from Massaliot and Macedonian prototypes, degraded through generations of copying until the original imagery became nearly abstract. The 1/24 stater denomination suggests a monetary system of genuine sophistication — one capable of expressing value in very small increments, likely for high-value trade transactions rather than everyday exchange.

Roman conquest under Tiberius and Drusus in 15 BC effectively ended independent Vindelician coinage production.
