Hexadrachm Nonnos Type

The Boii were expelled from their Bohemian territory by the Dacians under Burebista around 60–50 BC, a catastrophic displacement that effectively ended them as a coherent political entity in central Europe. Coinage attributed to them in this late period was likely struck in the decades immediately preceding that collapse, possibly in the middle Danube region. The Nonnos type takes its name from a find-piece or classification specimen rather than any inscription — these are anonymous strikings, as is the rule for Celtic silver of this region.
