Reverse description A horse standing or grazing to the right, rendered in the characteristic style of Alexandrian Troas provincial coinage, with the animal's head lowered toward the ground line. The horse, a well-known civic symbol and type of the Colonia Augusta Troadensis, occupies the central field. The Latin colonial legend COL AVG TROA is distributed around the periphery, partially legible through the patina and wear. The overall composition reflects the civic pride of the Roman colony in its equestrian traditions.
