| Reverse description | A highly stylized Celtic horse depicted in left profile, its body rendered in schematic, rounded relief typical of Boian coinage of the Karlstein type. The horse's form is reduced to essential geometric elements, with a clearly articulated head and haunches. Beneath the horse, a prominent ring enclosing a central pellet serves as the principal secondary device. Additional pellets are arranged above and around the horse, and a scroll or serpentine element appears in the lower field. No inscription or legend is present; the flan is irregular and the strike is characteristic of hand-hammered Celtic production. |
