Obverse description A horse prancing vigorously to the right, rendered in high relief with carefully detailed musculature, flowing mane, and raised forelegs, characteristic of the archaic Greek artistic style. The animal is depicted in a dynamic, spirited pose with its tail extended behind. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of early hand-struck coinage from the Troad region.
