| Beschrijving voorzijde | Plain, deeply concave field exhibiting a pronounced central boss or bulge, characteristic of the Folkusova type fabric. The surface is devoid of any figural or epigraphic design, the convex protrusion serving as the defining obverse feature. The flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hand-struck Celtic coinage of the period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stylised wheel or solar motif rendered in a highly abstracted Celtic manner, composed of a raised central pellet or boss set within a plain circular border, surrounded by radiating lines or spokes extending toward the serrated outer rim. The design is deeply influenced by late La Tène artistic conventions, reducing the classical prototype to its essential geometric elements. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cotini were a Celtic people occupying the ore-rich uplands of what is now northern Slovakia and the Czech-Moravian highlands, and their access to silver deposits distinguishes them from neighboring groups who more often struck in billon or base metal. The Folkusova type takes its name from a find site, consistent with how much of Celtic numismatic taxonomy was built — not from mint records, which don't exist, but from hoard and stray-find locations accumulated through the 19th and 20th centuries.
Göbl's classification remains the primary framework for Danubian Celtic coinage, established through his systematic die studies rather than documentary evidence.
