| Beschrijving keerzijde | A heavily stylised rider on horseback advancing to the left, the figure and mount reduced to schematic Celtic abstract forms derived from the Philip II Macedonian tetradrachm reverse type. A wreath motif appears above the horse, while vestiges of a branch or vegetal ornament are discernible below the horse's body. The rider's anatomy is highly abstracted, with limbs rendered as geometric lines, consistent with the progressive barbarisation typical of Dacian imitative coinage. The field is plain and uninscribed, with no exergual line or legend present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dacian imitations of Macedonian tetradrachms proliferated rapidly after Philip II's campaigns brought vast quantities of Macedonian silver into the Carpathian basin. Local tribes absorbed the coinage, then began striking their own interpretations — progressively more abstracted with each generation of dies, as engravers copied copies rather than originals. The Apollokopf-Dickschrötling type takes its name from the thick flan format, a deliberate departure from Macedonian proportions that may reflect indigenous weight standards or simply different planchet preparation habits.
Attribution to specific tribes remains unresolved. The Göbl and Kostial references catalogue die varieties rather than issuers, since no surviving inscription or find hoard has conclusively tied this type to a named group.
