| Reverse description | Head of a horse facing right, rendered in a naturalistic style with a carefully detailed mane and open mouth, set within a shallow incuse square typical of early Greek coinage technique. The Greek ethnic legend ΣΙΝΔΩΝ (Sindon) is inscribed above the horse's head in archaic Greek letters, identifying the issuing Sindi people of the northern Black Sea region. The incuse square creates a sunken relief framing the design, consistent with the Thraco-Macedonian and Pontic minting tradition of the late fifth century BC. |
