| Reverse description | Head of a horse facing left, rendered in three-quarter view within a shallow incuse square, a hallmark of early Thessalian coinage technique. The mane is depicted with fine engraved striations, and the musculature of the neck is boldly modelled. To the upper right of the horse's head appears the Greek letter Phi (Φ), with the letters Alpha (Α) and Rho (Ρ) arranged vertically below, forming the abbreviated ethnic inscription ΦΑΡ for Pharsalos. The composition is balanced within the incuse field, with the lettering occupying the right portion of the die. |
