Reverse description A horse grazing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in a naturalistic style typical of Alexandrian Troas colonial coinage, referencing the region's celebrated horse-breeding tradition. Behind the horse, a herdsman identified as Ordes stands facing right, holding a pedum (shepherd's crook) in his raised hand. The colonial legend is distributed around the field, identifying the issuing authority. The type is a well-known civic type of the Colonia Alexandria Troas, frequently appearing under multiple third-century emperors.
