| 正面描述 | Highly stylized, nearly blank convex field in high relief, characteristic of the Celtic Muschel (shell) type precursor series struck by the Boii. The surface displays a large, smoothly domed central boss occupying most of the flan, with vestiges of a schematized laureate head or abstracted facial features discernible toward the upper right, rendered in a deeply abstracted La Tène artistic style. The irregular flan exhibits the typical uneven edges of hand-struck Celtic coinage. No legend or inscription is present. The overall design reflects the progressive stylistic debasement of the Macedonian prototype. |

| 背面描述 | Deeply concave reverse field, a hallmark of the Muschel (shell) type, presenting a broad, bowl-shaped depression consistent with the obverse convex boss. The surface displays faint, radiating linear striations and ridged texturing along the left margin, suggestive of the vestigial horse motif characteristic of this Celtic Boian stater series in its most abstract form. The irregular flan edges and absence of any legend or exergual inscription are consistent with early Celtic hammered coinage. No mint mark or control symbol is present. |

The Boii were expelled from their territory in the Po Valley by Roman military pressure around 191 BC, pushing surviving populations northward into Bohemia and beyond. The "Muschel" type — named for the shell-like concavity characteristic of late Celtic gold staters in this tradition — sits at the end of a long devolution from Macedonian prototype coinage, the original Philip II staters that filtered into Celtic Europe through trade and mercenary payment in the 4th century BC. By this stage, the imagery had been abstracted beyond recognition through generations of copying.
Kostial 48 places this piece among the precursor variants, suggesting it predates the fully developed Muschel series — a distinction relevant to collectors working the typological sequence.
