| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized laureate male head, identified as Apollo, facing left in the Celtic La Tène artistic tradition. The coiffure is rendered as a series of bold, schematized curved locks radiating from the crown, with plastic pellets accentuating the hair. Facial features are deeply modeled with a prominent nose and strong jaw, characteristic of the Norican Celtic die-cutting style. The flan is irregular and the design fills the field without a border legend or inscription. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Noricum's silver coinage developed under heavy influence from the Macedonian and Thasian trade networks filtering through the Alpine passes, but the Kugelreiter types evolved into something distinctly local — the imagery progressively abstracted across generations of copying until the original Macedonian horseman became almost unrecognizable. The Obol denomination served the lowest tier of commercial exchange in a region that grew wealthy primarily through iron extraction and export to Roman markets.
At 0.61g, dies were cut small and the striking surface unforgiving. Centering failures are endemic to the type.
