| Reverse description | A horse standing or prancing to the right, depicted in profile with musculature rendered in the Hellenistic artistic tradition, occupying the central field above a ground line. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝ is inscribed above the horse, identifying the mint city of Alexandria. Control marks such as a corn-ear, monogram, thunderbolt, or wreath may appear in the field depending on the emission. The overall composition is characteristic of the civic bronze coinage of Ptolemaic Alexandria. |
