Beschrijving voorzijde Stylized head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the Celtic La Tène artistic tradition. The hair is depicted as a series of tight curling locks radiating from the crown, characteristic of the Nauheimer type coinage. The facial features are schematically rendered, with the eye and chin visible in profile. The overall design reflects the progressive abstraction of the Hellenistic Apollo prototype through successive Celtic die-cutting generations.

Beschrijving keerzijde A schematized anthropomorphic figure, commonly referred to as the 'Birdman,' striding to the left and carrying a torque. The figure's head appears globular or avian in form, and the body is rendered through a series of curved lines suggesting stylized musculature or drapery in the La Tène decorative manner. A torc or ring-shaped ornament is depicted in association with the figure, a recurring motif on Celtic coinage of the Rhineland region. Pellets and curved linear elements fill the field, consistent with the Nauheimer type die style.

Aanvullende informatie

The Vangiones were a Germanic tribe settled in the middle Rhine region, and their coinage — including this quinarius type named after the Nauheim find-complex — reflects the broad monetary influence Gaulish silver had across the Rhine frontier during the late La Tène period. The Nauheimer type circulated widely across a zone stretching from the Wetterau basin into the Rhineland, making clean attribution to a single issuing group genuinely difficult; the Vangiones designation here follows LT typology rather than any direct inscription or mint evidence.
