| Reverse description | Hector, the Trojan hero, driving a galloping quadriga to the right, brandishing a spear in his raised right hand and carrying a shield on his left arm; beneath the horses, a fallen warrior is depicted prostrate on the ground, alluding to Hector's martial prowess in the Iliad. The scene is rendered in vigorous, dynamic composition characteristic of provincial Greek civic coinage celebrating local mythological heritage. The reverse legend identifies the subject and the issuing city. |
