Reverse description A horse rearing up on its hind legs, depicted in left profile with muscular forequarters and flowing mane, a motif emblematic of Numidian coinage and reflecting the region's celebrated equestrian culture. Below the horse, Punic letters appear in the lower field, serving as a mint or authority identifier. The strike is bold though somewhat uneven, consistent with hammered bronze production. The overall composition is contained within an irregular, roughly circular flan displaying a rich green patina.
