| Reversbeschreibung | A stylised mounted horseman advancing to the right, rendered in the bold, schematic manner characteristic of Eastern Celtic coinage derived from Macedonian prototypes. The horse is depicted with exaggerated musculature, its body composed of flowing curves and geometric forms, with splayed hooves and a pronounced arched neck adorned with a dotted mane. The rider sits astride the horse in a simplified, abstract posture, his body reduced to geometric planes, with a raised arm and what appears to be a lance or spear-like element extending forward. Various ancillary symbols and pellets are scattered in the field around the group. The composition fills the broad, slightly irregular flan, with no legend or inscription present. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The "Eberkopf" (boar's head) type belongs to a cluster of Celtic silver issues produced somewhere in the middle Danube basin, most likely by tribes operating east of the Norican sphere. Attribution remains genuinely contested — Kostial, Göbl, and subsequent scholarship have failed to pin production to a single tribal group, which is itself informative: these coins moved across tribal boundaries through gift exchange and mercenary payment rather than through any centralized issuing authority.
Celtic mercenaries serving Hellenistic rulers in the 3rd century BC were frequently paid in Macedonian tetradrachms, which they then imitated locally. The Eberkopf type sits in that tradition of progressive stylistic abstraction away from the Macedonian prototype.
