| Reverse description | A horse advancing to the right occupies the central field, depicted in a sturdy, naturalistic provincial style with the foreleg raised in motion. The animal is shown unattended, a common reverse type for Alexandria Troas colonial bronze coinage referencing the city's legendary association with horses. A horizontal ground line may be present beneath the figure. The colonial legend encircles the type in the surrounding field, distributed across the upper and lower registers. |
