| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stylised riderless horse advancing to the left in a prancing posture, rendered in a bold, schematised Celtic idiom with a beaded mane and dotted body contour. Above the horse's back appear two symbols in the upper field: a pellet-and-ring motif to the upper left and a rayed rosette or star to the upper right, both characteristic decorative elements of Eastern Celtic coinage. The tail of the horse is depicted in a distinctive curved, beaded or combed style. The composition fills the broad, slightly convex flan, with no exergual line or inscription, consistent with the aniconic, legend-free tradition of this Celtic series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Dachreiter" — literally "roof rider" — designation refers to the abstract horseman motif that Celtic die-cutters derived from the Philip II tetradrachm prototype, distorted across generations of copying until the original Macedonian imagery became almost unrecognizable. These eastern Celtic issues circulated through territories roughly corresponding to modern Slovakia, Hungary, and the western Ukrainian steppe, passing through communities that had no direct contact with the Hellenistic world that inspired them.
Attribution to a specific tribe remains genuinely unsettled. The Kostial and Göbl classifications organize these coins typologically, not ethnically.
