| Reverse description | A horse prancing or galloping to the left, depicted in the lively, vigorous style typical of Sicilian coinage of the late Classical period, with mane flowing and legs raised in mid-stride. A ground line divides the field horizontally, below which the ethnic legend ΣΥΡΑΚΟΣΙΩΝ is inscribed. The legend ΣΥΡΑ (or ΣΥΡΑΚ) appears in the upper field above the horse. The horse type is a long-standing emblem of Syracusan civic coinage, symbolizing the city's wealth and power. The overall composition is bold and well-centered within the irregular flan. |
