My avatar is the reverse of an Eastern Celtic coin of a type found in what's now Romania. It's a tetradrachm that basically imitates that of Philip of Macedon.
It was minted in the Central Carpathian region, 2nd century BC. Scyphate. Obv. Vague Zeus head to the right, 'Kinnlos' (= Chinless). Rev. Rider on a horse with 'Entenschnabel' (= Duckbill). 24 mm, 12.38 gr. Sergeev 70-71 (p. 36). Aninoasa-Dobresti type. Here I have written what I like about this coin.
