| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised horse prancing to the left, rendered in the abstracted Celtic artistic tradition, with a prominent spiky or flame-like mane. A single globule appears between the horse's legs, and a pellet is visible in the left field. Three pellets arranged above the horse represent a highly schematised rider figure, reduced to its most abstract symbolic form. |

The Cotini were a Celtic people settled in what is now northwestern Slovakia and the adjacent Carpathian regions, and are one of the few groups Tacitus specifically singles out as paying tribute to the Quadi and Sarmatians — an humiliation he notes they compounded by working iron mines for their overlords. Their coinage, including this drachm type, draws on Macedonian prototypes circulating through the Danube corridor following Alexander's campaigns, though the transmission happened slowly and through several intermediary Celtic adaptations rather than direct contact.
The Göbl classification system for Celtic coinage of this region remains the primary reference, with Kelt#362 placing this Spis B type within a geographically specific production cluster tied to the Spiš area of the Carpathians.
