| Reverse description | A helmeted and cuirassed horseman galloping to the right, depicted in dynamic motion with a long thrusting spear couched in his right hand and a round shield on his left arm. Behind the horseman appear the piloi (conical caps) of the Dioskouroi, serving as a civic symbol of Kibyra. The Greek ethnic legend ΟϹΑΙ ΚΙΒΥΡΑΤΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing authority. The composition fills the flan in a vigorous Hellenistic provincial style. |
