Reverse description A figure, identified as either the Emperor or the mythological hero Leucippus, shown on a prancing horse moving to the right and wearing a chlamys. The rider is depicted in the act of thrusting a spear downward toward a kneeling enemy figure at lower right, positioned before a lighted altar. Beneath the horse, a dog is shown running to the right, a detail typical of hunting or heroic imagery in provincial coinage. The composition is enclosed within a beaded border, with the magistrate's legend distributed around the periphery. The scene reflects the martial and heroic iconographic conventions common to Severan-era provincial bronzes of Ionia.
