| Aversbeschreibung | A horse in a prancing or walking pose occupies the central field, depicted in archaic Greek style with bold, schematic musculature. The animal faces left with its body shown in profile, rendered with the characteristic stiffness of late Archaic coinage from the northern Aegean. A dotted border frames the design along the coin's periphery. The type reflects Maroneia's early civic coinage tradition, the horse being the city's principal emblematic type. The flan is irregular, as typical of hammered silver issues of this period. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Maroneia, the Thracian coastal city credited in ancient sources as the site of Odysseus's famous encounter with the Cicones, was producing coinage by the late sixth century BC — making this among the earliest issues from the northern Aegean littoral. The city's prosperity derived almost entirely from its wine, exported widely enough that Maronean vintages are mentioned by name in Herodotus and later in Homer's Odyssey as the gift wine carried by Odysseus himself.
The Schönert-Geiss die study identified seven distinct obverse dies across types 11–17, suggesting relatively modest but sustained output during this twenty-year window.
