| Reverse description | A horseman galloping to the right, depicted in dynamic posture with the rider's cloak billowing behind him; the horse shown in full stride with raised forelegs, conveying martial energy characteristic of Macedonian royal bronzes. The abbreviated royal legend B-A (BASILEOS ANTIGONOU) appears divided in the upper field to left and right of the horseman, while an ANTI monogram is placed beneath the horse in the lower field. The design references the celebrated Macedonian cavalry tradition associated with the royal house. |
