| Reverse description | A Pegasus or horse galloping to the right occupies the central field, rendered in a lively provincial style characteristic of Iberian Roman coinage. Below the horse, the Latin legend EMPOR is inscribed in clear capital letters, identifying the issuing city of Emporion. A dotted border encircles the design. The composition reflects the strong Greco-Roman iconographic influence prevalent in the northeastern Iberian peninsula during the late Republican period. |
