| Beschrijving keerzijde | Athena Alkis (Alkidemos) striding to left, rendered in a heavily abstracted Celtic manner derived from the Macedonian coinage of Philip V and Perseus. The goddess is depicted bearing a raised shield and brandishing a spear, her figure reduced to stylized linear elements. A degraded and partially retrograde Greek legend appears to the right of the figure, with an E (retrograde) and additional degenerated characters below to the left, reflecting the Boian die engravers' increasingly schematic treatment of the original Greek inscription. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Boii — a Celtic people who controlled large swaths of what is now Bohemia and Bavaria — struck gold coinage in direct response to contact with Macedonian and later Roman monetary systems, adapting Greek prototypes through successive generations of stylistic abstraction until the original imagery became almost unrecognizable. The Alkidemos type traces back to issues of Philip V of Macedon, filtered through layers of Celtic reinterpretation across decades of transmission.
By the late second century BC, Boian power was collapsing under Roman military pressure, culminating in their defeat at the Battle of the Campi Raudii in 101 BC.
