| 正面描述 | Jugate busts of a youthful male figure and a horse facing right, both rendered in high relief within a circular border. The male head, possibly representing a local hero or deity, is depicted with flowing hair and naturalistic facial features characteristic of early fourth-century Thessalian coinage. The horse's head emerges prominently alongside the human bust, referencing the celebrated equestrian culture of Krannon and the broader Thessalian region. The composition fills the flan, with the subjects arranged in close proximity and the surfaces exhibiting a bold, archaic sculptural quality. |

| 背面描述 | A horse standing to the right in the field, rendered with sturdy proportions typical of Thessalian bronze coinage of the early fourth century BC. The animal is depicted in a striding pose, conveying energy and movement, consistent with the equestrian imagery central to Krannonian civic iconography. A linear groundline runs beneath the horse, below which the ethnic legend appears in Greek characters. The overall style is bold and compact, suited to the small flan of this bronze denomination. |

Krannon was a powerful Thessalian polis whose political influence peaked in the fifth and fourth centuries BC, yet its coinage remains sparsely documented. The city is best known to history for the Battle of Crannon in 322 BC, where Macedonian forces under Antipater crushed the last coordinated Greek resistance following the Lamian War — effectively ending Athenian-led opposition to Macedonian hegemony. This bronze issue predates that defeat by half a century, struck when Krannon still operated as a genuinely independent Thessalian power with its own monetary output.
The Rogers#172a variant designation signals a die difference from the principal type — minor enough to escape a separate number, consequential enough to note.
