| Beschrijving voorzijde | Thessalian horseman galloping to the right, depicted in vigorous motion with the rider shown in profile wearing a chlamys and petasos; the horse is rendered with dynamic naturalism typical of Thessalian bronze coinage, its legs extended in full gallop. The composition fills the flan, with the figures in high relief against a plain field. The style reflects the regional Thessalian artistic tradition, emphasizing equestrian prowess for which the region was renowned in antiquity. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pelinna was a minor Thessalian polis in the Histiaeotis region, and its bronze coinage is sparse enough that die links between surviving specimens have been charted in the BCD collection — one of the few systematic attempts to map the series. The city's output almost certainly contracted after the Macedonian consolidation of Thessaly under Philip II, which subordinated local minting authority across the region. Most surviving dichalka from Pelinna show heavy circulation wear, suggesting genuine everyday use rather than hoarding.
