| Obverse description | Horse prancing to right, rendered in a lively archaic style characteristic of Cyrenaican bronze coinage. The animal is depicted in three-quarter profile with forelegs raised, its mane and muscular body rendered with bold, somewhat schematic relief. The field is plain, with no visible inscription or exergual marking. The type reflects the celebrated equestrian tradition of the Libyan hinterland and the renowned horse-breeding culture of the region. |
