| Beschrijving keerzijde | A nude or lightly draped rider on horseback advancing to the right, holding a palm branch aloft in the Celtic imitative tradition of the Macedonian Philip II tetradrachm reverse type. The inscription ΦΙΛΙΠΠ-OΥ is distributed around the field, referencing the original Macedonian royal legend. Secondary control symbols appear below the horse, including the letter Λ and a torch, with a kantharos depicted before the horse. The overall composition reflects a Celtic reinterpretation of the Macedonian 'Siegesreiter' (victory rider) motif, with some stylistic simplification characteristic of barbarian imitative issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Siegesreiter" (victory rider) tetradrachms represent Celtic coinage derived from the Philip II Macedonian prototype, spreading northward and westward as Celtic groups encountered — and plundered — Macedonian silver during the late 4th century BC. The attribution to "uncertain Eastern European Celts" reflects a genuine scholarly impasse: die studies and find-spot analysis have not yet resolved whether these were struck by a single tribal authority or across multiple groups sharing a common stylistic tradition.
Kostial's classification remains the working reference for this type, though the hoard evidence underlying the date range is itself contested.
