| Obverse description | Forepart of a horse rearing to the right, rendered in vigorous archaic style with boldly modeled musculature; the animal's neck is arched and its forelegs are raised above a ground line. The design fills the irregular flan characteristic of early Thessalian coinage, with the field left plain. The powerful equine motif reflects the celebrated horse-breeding culture of ancient Thessaly. |
