The bucranium symbol above the horse on various late Celtic staters raises an interesting question on the development of Celtic coin types. On the earliest Gallo-Belgic staters (see lot 4, above) the derivation of the reverse type from the Macedonian chariot type is clear. On a later type (see lot 7, above), the horse remains, but there is only a curious looping device above it, which nonetheless can be interpreted as the charioteer, holding the reins and his whip. On this type, some twenty years after the previous example, we find the device of the bucranium between pellets. Is this in fact the last traces of the charioteer, the meaning of the type lost after decades of copying?
