| Beschrijving keerzijde | Concave reverse field displaying a boldly rendered abstract shell or mussel motif in high relief, with a deep central groove flanked by raised ridges radiating outward in a naturalistic, organic manner. The flan edges are irregular and uneven, consistent with the hammered production technique of Celtic gold coinage. The design is entirely aniconic, with no inscription, exergue, or additional decorative element. The plastic modeling of the shell form is the sole artistic expression, executed in the characteristically abstract La Tène artistic tradition. No legend is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Boii occupied a vast territory stretching from Bohemia into the Po Valley before Roman military pressure — culminating in the Battle of Placentia in 194 BC and subsequent campaigns — fractured their confederation and expelled them from northern Italy entirely. Their coinage, including fractional staters of this type, circulated across an unusually wide geographic range precisely because the tribe itself was in near-constant displacement during the later issues.
The "Muschel" designation reflects the German numismatic tradition of cataloguing Celtic coinage, with Kostial's reference work remaining the standard for Boian gold fractions.
