Abstract
The group of Celtic coins from the bailey of the Kolo castellum is represented by 68 pieces, all of them lost there. The core of the group consists of the Boian coins of the Bohemian origin - 1/3-staters and 1/8-staters of the mussel type, obols of the B type (Stradonice) and the C type (Stradonice/ Karlstein).
There are also individual specimens of the imported production - from Moravia, south Germany, Hesse/ Rhineland Palatinate and Gaul. Comparing their composition, this group of coins is very similar to that one from the Stradonice oppidum (Tab. 1), but it is naturally much smaller (68 pieces to 2,481 pieces).
Using the coins, the dating of the location could be placed between the horizons of LT D1a and LT D1b, while the potential end of the period (LT D2) is not fully detectable via coin determination. In spite of the fact that the coins come from the bailey of the castellum only, it is clear that they can offer the complex information about the entire location.
Importance of the location is undoubtedly connected with existence of the communication along the Elbe River, and because of the coin spectrum, the Kolo castellum can be regarded as an important and long searched local center of the Oppidum Period.
