正面描述 Janiform double head depicted facing outward in opposite directions, rendered in the abstract Celtic La Tène artistic tradition derived from the Macedonian prototype. The two conjoined heads share a central floral or leaf-shaped ornament at the crown, with stylized radiating hair locks fanning outward in a distinctive vegetal pattern above. Facial features are boldly modeled with prominent rounded cheeks, schematic eyes, and simplified nose and chin forms characteristic of Eastern Celtic die-cutting. The design is without legend or border, occupying the full flan in high relief. The overall composition reflects the Celtic reinterpretation of the Hellenistic janiform head motif, increasingly abstracted from its Greek origin.

背面描述 A stylized horse prancing to the left, rendered in the abstract Celtic manner with a globular, rounded body and schematically depicted legs. The rider above the horse is reduced to a highly abstracted torso or helmet form, with dotted bead-string ornamentation visible at the upper right suggesting a torque or harness element. Scattered symbols including pellets, a leaf or branch motif, and linear strokes fill the field in typical Eastern Celtic fashion. The composition is derived ultimately from the Macedonian Philip II tetradrachm reverse type but thoroughly transformed through successive Celtic die generations. No legend or exergual inscription is present.

附加信息

Celtic silver coinage of this period derived almost entirely from Macedonian prototypes — specifically the tetradrachms of Philip II — but Eastern European workshops progressively abstracted those designs across generations of copying until the original source became nearly unrecognizable. The janiform type represents one of the more radical departures from the Philippic tradition, suggesting a mint operating at some remove from the main imitative centers of the middle Danube.

Attribution to a specific Celtic group remains contested. Kostial and Göbl both place related material within the broader Eastern Celtic sphere without committing to a tribal identity.
