Reverse description Irregular square copper flan displaying a crudely rendered equestrian figure in left profile, depicted as a mounted rider on horseback in a dynamic posture. The horse and rider are shown in low relief against a heavily pitted and textured field, with additional indistinct devices and possibly fragmentary inscriptions surrounding the central motif. The execution is characteristic of hastily produced siege or emergency coinage, with an uneven, roughly finished surface and irregular flan edges. No clear legend is discernible.
