| Beschrijving voorzijde | Celticised bare and beardless head facing right, adorned with a pearl diadem rendered as a prominent row of raised pellets across the crown. The hair is depicted in deeply engraved parallel striations sweeping back from the brow, with a loose curl falling before the ear. The facial features are boldly stylised in the Celtic manner, with a large almond-shaped eye, pronounced brow ridge, and a rounded chin bearing a single pellet. The neck is partially draped, with a foliate or wing-like element visible behind. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Reiterstumpf" — literally "rider stump" — designation refers to the progressive abstraction of a mounted figure so stylized by Celtic die-cutters that the original Macedonian prototype is barely legible. These coins descend ultimately from the tetradrachms of Philip II of Macedon, whose coinage flooded central Europe through mercenary payments and trade in the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. Each successive generation of Celtic imitation pushed the design further from the source, making typological sequences like Göbl's essential for placing individual dies within the transmission chain.
The Burgenland designation is geographic, not political — the modern Austrian province gives its name to a Celtic population whose tribal identity remains poorly documented in ancient sources.
