| Reverse description | A horse grazes to the right in the open field, with a tree depicted at left providing a pastoral setting. Behind the horse, the herdsman Ordes stands facing right, holding a pedum (shepherd's crook) in his hand. This reverse type is characteristic of the Roman colonial coinage of Alexandria Troas and alludes to the city's equestrian traditions and sacred herds associated with the Sminthian Apollo. The colonial legend COL AVG TR is distributed in the field around the central design. |
