| 表面の説明 | Celticized laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in the characteristic barbarous style derived from Macedonian prototypes. The laureate wreath is depicted as a row of prominent pellets or beads arching over the scalp, clearly visible along the upper edge of the flan. The facial features are boldly stylized, with a notably absent or recessed chin — the defining characteristic of the so-called 'Kinnlos' (chinless) type — and schematically rendered hair locks cascading behind the neck. The overall execution reflects the vigorous and abstract Celtic reinterpretation of Hellenistic die-engraving traditions. |

| 裏面の説明 | A jockey or rider depicted in highly abstracted Celtic style astride a horse galloping to the right, derived ultimately from the reverse type of Philip II of Macedon tetradrachms. The horse's head is rendered in a schematic, duck-billed or pellet-and-arc form characteristic of the Kinnlos series. The horse's middle legs are bound or crossed together, a distinctive iconographic feature of this regional coinage type. Below and around the horse, abstract linear and curved decorative elements fill the field, replacing the legend of the Macedonian prototype entirely. The composition demonstrates advanced Celtic stylization, retaining the essential compositional elements of the Greek archetype while transforming them into a distinctly local artistic idiom. |

The "Kinnlos" designation — German for "chinless" — refers to the progressive stylistic degeneration of the Alexander III tetradrachm prototype as Dacian celators in Oltenia abstracted the obverse head across successive generations of copying. This is imitative coinage in the truest sense: not a forgery, but a local monetary tradition that borrowed Macedonian weight standards while the design drifted steadily away from its source over decades of workshop transmission.
Oltenia's position between the Carpathians and the Danube placed it at the edge of Hellenistic commercial reach, where silver by weight mattered more than iconographic fidelity.
