| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised horse prancing to the left, its body rendered with characteristic Celtic abstraction featuring a prominent rounded torso and segmented hindquarters indicated by curved lines. The mane is suggested by a row of pellets along the neck, and the legs are shown in a dynamic, splayed posture. A spoked wheel occupies the upper right field, a recurring cult or solar symbol in Eastern Celtic coinage. Additional scattered pellets and schematic geometric elements fill the open field, consistent with the Eastern Norican Celtic artistic tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Wuschelkopf" — literally "mop-head" — types of East Noricum belong to a cluster of late La Tène silver coinage produced by Celtic tribes occupying the eastern Alpine region, broadly identified as Norican. The distinctive abstracted head that gives this type its modern nickname reflects a gradual Celtic reinterpretation of Macedonian prototypes, drifting so far from the source over successive die generations that the original model is nearly unrecognizable. Norican silver circulated heavily in the context of tribal gift exchange and mercenary payment, not retail trade.
Kostial 207 sits within a well-documented sequence, but individual die links across the series remain incompletely mapped.
