Beschrijving voorzijde Celticised bare head of Herakles facing right, wearing the lion skin headdress rendered in a distinctly abstract, schematised Celtic style; the scalp and mane of the lion skin are depicted as a series of crescent-shaped pellets and curvilinear motifs arranged across the crown and neck. The facial features are boldly modelled, with a prominent brow, rounded eye, and stylised ear, reflecting the progressive Celticisation of the original Macedonian prototype.

Aanvullende informatie

Celtic coinages derived from the Macedonian drachm of Philip II circulated across an enormous geographic arc — from the Carpathian basin into the Balkans and beyond — for well over two centuries, progressively abstracting the original Greek prototype into forms that bear only structural resemblance to their source. The attribution "Uncertain Eastern European Celts" reflects a genuine scholarly problem: without hoard provenance, pinning these pieces to a specific tribe or region remains speculative, and the published references disagree on finer points of classification.

Kostial 948 and Göbl 595 place this variety within a late evolutionary stage of the series.
