| Beschrijving keerzijde | A horse leaping dynamically to the left, depicted in the abstract Celtic artistic style with exaggerated musculature and schematised limbs. The tribal name EVOIVRIX appears inscribed on a recessed rectangular panel or tablet positioned below the horse. The entire composition is framed within a linear arch border, likely a segment of a torc or lunate motif, reinforcing the distinctly Celtic iconographic vocabulary of this Boian issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Boii, a major Celtic tribe that dominated the middle Danube basin, were driven from their Bohemian heartland by the Dacians under Burebista around 60–50 BC — a displacement so complete that Roman sources describe the region as the "Boian desert" for generations afterward. The Evorix-type hexadrachm belongs to the late phase of Boian silver coinage, produced during or just before this collapse.
Boian coinage operated outside Roman monetary authority entirely, functioning within tribal exchange networks whose precise mechanisms remain poorly understood. The 16g weight standard tracks a degraded Macedonian tetradrachm tradition filtered through generations of Celtic reinterpretation.
