| Beschrijving keerzijde | Highly abstracted Celtic horseman depicted galloping to the left, reduced to a schematic arrangement of angular lines representing the rider and mount in the characteristic La Tène style. Scattered pellets appear both above and below the horse, serving as decorative field elements. The entire composition is boldly struck yet deeply stylised, retaining only vestigial naturalistic detail derived from Hellenistic equestrian prototypes. No legend or inscription is present. The design fills the irregular flan with the rider motif centrally placed. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Hercuniates were a Celtic tribe settled in the region of Pannonia, roughly corresponding to modern western Hungary and eastern Austria, whose coinage represents some of the more localized and poorly-documented silver issues of the late La Tène period. The Kapostal type obols are among the smallest denominations attributed to this group, and die studies suggest highly localized production — possibly serving a single community or market rather than any broad tribal economy. Kostial's cataloguing remains the primary reference, and attribution of individual specimens to this type over related Pannonian obol types frequently depends on subtle die characteristics rather than typological clarity alone.
