Aversbeschreibung Celticized bust of Artemis facing right, rendered in the distinctive abstract La Tène artistic style derived from earlier Macedonian prototypes. The hair is depicted with bold, stylized striations swept back from the forehead, adorned with a beaded diadem or wreath indicated by pellets above the brow. The facial features are rendered with characteristic Celtic schematization, the eye prominent and almond-shaped, the neck draped with vestigial garment folds. The flan is broad but irregular, with surface patination consistent with prolonged burial.

Reversbeschreibung Stylized horse prancing to the left in a highly abstracted Celtic rendering derived from the Macedonian tetradrachm reverse tradition. A diminutive rider or charioteer figure appears above the horse's back, rendered schematically with simplified limbs. A large central pellet or globule dominates the field before the horse, flanked by additional pellets and curved decorative elements in the exergual area. The composition is enclosed within a vestigial linear border, with scattered pellet ornaments filling the field in characteristic Celtic fashion.

Zusätzliche Informationen

The "Artemiskopf" designation groups a loose cluster of Celtic imitative issues ultimately derived from the coinage of Amphipolis — specifically the Apollo tetradrachms of Philip II of Macedon, which flooded the Danube basin through trade and tribute during the 3rd century BC. Attribution to a specific tribe remains contested; the "Eastern European Celts" umbrella reflects genuine uncertainty rather than scholarly shorthand. The long date range assigned to this type acknowledges that provincial Celtic mints often continued striking long after their Hellenistic prototypes had ceased circulating.

Göbl's die study places this specific variant — Pl. 24, 278/1 — among issues with notably debased stylization relative to earlier Macedonian archetypes.
