| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized palm tree rendered in bold Celtic relief dominates the center of the flan, with a prominent globule at the apex and symmetrical curved fronds extending laterally on either side of a central stalk. Two additional globules are positioned in the lower field, flanking the base of the tree. The design is executed in the characteristic abstracted La Tène artistic style, with no inscriptions or legends present. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with surface cracks typical of Celtic gold staters of this type and period. |

The Vindelici occupied the region north of the Alps between the Lech and Inn rivers, and their coinage was struck without a permanent mint — production was almost certainly itinerant, tied to tribal gatherings or moments of political consolidation rather than any fixed administrative center. The "palm and peltas" type takes its name from the abstract reverse arrangement, though its ultimate derivation traces back through successive generations of copying from Macedonian gold staters, so thoroughly transformed by the time of this issue that the original Hellenistic prototype is barely recoverable.
Augustus's campaigns of 15 BC under Drusus and Tiberius effectively ended independent Vindelician coinage production.
