| Reverse description | A helmeted and cuirassed horseman galloping in right profile, depicted in dynamic charging stance with a spear couched in the right hand and a round shield held in the left. The horse is shown at full charge, with legs extended in a vigorous gallop, conveying martial energy characteristic of Hellenistic military iconography. A palm frond appears behind the rider, serving as a symbol of victory. The Greek ethnic legend ΚΙΒΥΡΑΤΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the civic authority of Kibyra in Phrygia. The composition is consistent with the civic drachm coinage of Kibyra struck during the period of its autonomy under Roman oversight. |
