Untersuchungen zum Beginn der keltischen Goldprägung in Süddeutschland

Abstract

Presented is the 1/24th gold stater, one of the oldest cointypes of South Germany from about the 2nd half of the 3d century B.C. In their metrology they are dose to the coinage of the Boii, although their types — ianiform head, monster with human head and horse's body, triple head and strongly stylized head — are thoroughly unique. Their striking technique certainly has its origins in those from the hellenistic world. — From most of the 41 coins data of metal analysis are added
