| Obverse description | Nude ephebic horseman seated on a horse standing to right, raising his right hand to place a wreath upon the animal's head while holding the bridle reins in his left hand. A kerykeion (caduceus) appears in the right field. The monogram ΛΑ is inscribed in the exergue, likely denoting a magistrate's abbreviation. The composition reflects the Tarentine tradition of equestrian imagery celebrating the city's aristocratic and athletic culture. |
