| Reverse description | A horse standing to the left occupies the central field, with a small foal or second animal depicted beneath or beside it, referencing the coin's denomination name 'Cavallo' (horse). A ground line separates the figures from the lower field. The encircling legend EQVITAS REGNI, meaning 'equity of the kingdom,' runs around the periphery in Latin capitals. The design is characteristic of the hammered copper coinage struck at the Naples Mint under Ferdinando I, with the horse motif serving as both a denominational symbol and a dynastic emblem. |
