| Reverse description | A free horse shown in a spirited gallop to the right, with all four legs raised and mane flowing, rendered in vigorous relief characteristic of Punic Sicilian coinage of the period. The musculature of the horse is confidently modeled, conveying energy and movement. Beneath the horse in the lower field appears a Punic inscription reading 'HT', serving as a mint or magistrate abbreviation. The design fills a well-defined circular field on an irregular flan. |
