| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly stylized Celticized head facing right, rendered in the abstract La Tène artistic tradition. The facial features are dissolved into a series of flowing curvilinear forms, with pronounced spiral motifs representing hair or a crown above the head. Pellets and decorative beaded elements punctuate the field, while the neck and lower jaw are indicated by a structured beaded band. The entire composition is enclosed within an irregular beaded border, characteristic of Central European Celtic coinage derived from Macedonian prototypes. |

The "Nauheimer Type" takes its name from Bad Nauheim in Hesse, where a significant concentration of these coins was recovered, though the actual striking location remains unresolved — candidates range across a broad arc of central Gaulish and Germanic territory. The type belongs to a late phase of Celtic silver coinage when quinarius production was fragmenting into highly localized imitations, each generation of dies drifting further from the Massaliote and Roman prototypes that originally inspired the series.
Hoards containing this type often mix with Roman republican quinarii, suggesting a monetary environment where both circulated interchangeably by weight.
