Beschrijving voorzijde Facing head of Apollo rendered in a schematized, barbarized Celtic style derived from Macedonian prototypes. The face is depicted full-front with large, almond-shaped eyes, a broad nose, and pursed lips. The hair is rendered as a series of stylized leaf-shaped locks radiating symmetrically outward from a central parting, flanking the face on both sides and surmounted by a prominent spherical element at the crown. The entire design is contained within a border of raised pellets, with the die execution displaying the characteristic flat, abstracted treatment typical of Dacian tribal coinage of the mid-to-late 3rd century BC.

Aanvullende informatie

Dacian silver imitations of Macedonian tetradrachms proliferated across the Carpathian basin from the late 3rd century onward, produced by tribal workshops with no fixed mint infrastructure and no centralized issuing authority. The attribution to specific tribes remains genuinely unresolved — "uncertain Dacian" is not a cataloger's hedge but an accurate reflection of the scholarly record.

The Apollokopf type takes its name from the Greek prototype it progressively distorted through successive generations of die-copying. Each workshop copied from coins rather than from original dies, meaning stylistic drift was cumulative and directional. The Kostial sequence documents this degeneration systematically.
