Beschrijving keerzijde Highly schematized horse galloping to the left, rendered in the abstract La Tène artistic tradition typical of southern Germanic Celtic coinage. The body of the animal is represented by a large central globule flanked by subsidiary pellets indicating the haunches and head, with a curved line denoting the neck and a crescent-shaped element suggesting the mane or foreleg. Additional pellets are scattered in the field, likely vestigial remnants of the charioteer or decorative motifs derived from Macedonian prototypes. The overall composition is characteristic of the Manching Group A type, reflecting progressive stylistic abstraction.

Aanvullende informatie

The Vindelici occupied the upper Danube region and produced coinage in an established Celtic tradition, but their quinarii occupy an unusual position — struck at a weight standard clearly derived from the Roman quinarius yet filtered through distinctly local die-cutting practices. The Manching oppidum, among the largest north of the Alps, served as a production and redistribution hub for this type during its period of peak activity.

Kostial group classifications for Vindelician quinarii rest primarily on die-axis patterns and fabric consistency rather than iconographic variation alone, making group attribution dependent on physical examination.
