Beschrijving voorzijde Celtic barbarous imitation of the drachm of Alexander III of Macedon. The obverse depicts a stylized male head facing right, rendered in the abstract Celtic artistic tradition derived from the Macedonian prototype showing Herakles wearing the Nemean lion skin headdress. The facial features are boldly simplified, with the lion scalp knotted beneath the chin rendered in a characteristically Celtic schematic manner. The flan is irregular and the die work reflects local Celtic craftsmanship of the Danubian region, dating to the 3rd–2nd century BC.

Beschrijving keerzijde Celtic stylized imitation of the reverse type of Alexander III drachms, depicting Zeus seated left on a throne, holding a long scepter in his left hand. The figure is rendered in an abstracted, schematic Celtic style with simplified anatomical forms, departing significantly from the refined Hellenistic prototype. An eagle may be discerned on Zeus's extended right hand, consistent with the original Macedonian type. The reverse field shows no legible inscription, as the Celtic die-cutter omitted or rendered illegible the Greek legend ALEXANDROU present on the prototype.
