| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylized and abstracted Celtic design featuring a prominent zigzag or chevron motif rendered in bold relief, occupying the central field. Flanking the central device are rows of pellets or beaded lines arranged vertically along both sides, a characteristic decorative element of late Celtic coinage. The overall composition is typical of the debased, abstract artistic style associated with late Boii silver coinage, with no legible inscription or legend present. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized horse galloping to the left in the central field, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition with exaggerated limbs and simplified anatomy. Above the horse's back appears a large spoked wheel or solar disc symbol, a common motif in Boian Celtic coinage. The horse's head is depicted with radiating lines suggesting a mane or forelock. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with no inscription or legend present, consistent with the anonymous character of Boii tribal coinage. |

The Boii who produced this type were not the Bohemian Boii expelled by the Marcomanni around 50 BC, but a separate population settled along the middle Danube — a distinction that matters for dating and attribution. The Tótfalu type sits within a late phase of Celtic silver coinage in the region, when imitative traditions derived from Macedonian prototypes had already been heavily abstracted through generations of local die-cutting.
Göbl's classification places this among a tightly defined group distinguished by specific flan fabric and die style rather than find-spot alone.
