Beschrijving keerzijde Armored horseman advancing to the right, mounted on a prancing horse rendered in a lively, stylized Celtic manner. The rider brandishes a spear upward in his right hand, wearing a crested helmet, the crest rendered as an angular triangular form. The horse is depicted in full gallop with raised forelegs and dotted ornamental details along its neck and body. The Celtic inscription ATTA appears in the lower field below the horse, between the hooves, within a dotted border running along the lower periphery.

Aanvullende informatie

West Noricum occupied the eastern Alps between roughly the Salzach and the Sava, a region whose Celtic tribes controlled significant silver sources and trade routes connecting the Mediterranean world to the Danube corridor. The "Atta" types represent a late phase of Noric coinage, progressively abstracting their prototypes — ultimately derived from Macedonian tetradrachms of Philip II — across generations of die-cutting until the imagery became almost unrecognizable.

Kostial 138 sits within a classification system that remains contested; attribution to specific tribal groups within West Noricum is largely inferential, based on findspot concentrations rather than any written record.
