| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly schematized and stylized rendering of a human head or face in the Celtic artistic tradition, executed in low relief on a convex flan. Two prominent boss-like pellets occupy the lower field, suggestive of abstracted facial features. Diagonal incised lines in the upper field represent a vestigial hair or laurel wreath motif, reduced to abstract strokes through successive die generations. The design fills the entire irregular flan with no legend or inscription, reflecting the non-literate coinage tradition of the Boii tribe. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Boii were a Celtic people whose territory stretched across what is now Bohemia, Bavaria, and northern Italy — the name "Bohemia" is itself a Latin rendering of their presence there. Their gold coinage, including these fractional staters, was produced during a period of sustained pressure from Roman expansion and inter-tribal conflict that ultimately ended with their near-total military defeat by the Dacians around 60 BC. The surviving population largely dispersed or was absorbed.
Boian gold fractions are notoriously difficult to attribute precisely within the series, and the Kostial reference remains one of the few systematic attempts to organize them.
