| Obverse description | Nude warrior on horseback galloping to the right, his right arm raised and brandishing a weapon overhead while his left arm carries a round shield and a bundle of three spears. The magistrate's name appears in the field: ΔI to the upper left and AΡIΣTOKΛHΣ divided across the lower field. The composition is dynamic, reflecting the accomplished die-engraving tradition of Tarentine coinage. |
