| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized horse standing left in a boldly rounded, almost geometric Celtic rendering, with the body composed of large globular masses suggesting musculature. The horse's head is turned slightly, with decorative pellet-and-leaf ornaments above and around it, characteristic of Eastern Celtic coinage derived from Paeonin prototypes. Scattered pellets and abstract linear symbols occupy the field around the horse, including what appear to be schematic limb or weapon forms below. The overall composition fills the flan in a lively, decorative manner consistent with the Audoleon type group. No legend or exergual inscription is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Audoleon type takes its name from a Paeonian king active around 300 BC, whose Philip II-derived coinage circulated widely enough across the central Balkans to inspire Celtic imitations for generations. Who exactly struck these pieces remains unresolved — attribution to specific tribal groups in the eastern Celtic periphery is contested, and the "uncertain" label in most references reflects genuine scholarly disagreement rather than incomplete research.
Göbl's classification system placed these within a stylistic sequence showing progressive abstraction from the Macedonian prototype, each generation of dies moving further from the source.
