| Obverse description | Nude youth on horseback riding to the right, the horse shown at a spirited canter with raised foreleg. The rider is depicted in a dynamic pose, wearing a crested helmet, and holds a spear or palm frond. The magistrate's initial delta (Δ) appears to the left in the field, with the partial legend of the magistrate's name rendered in Greek characters below or around the type. The composition reflects the refined engraving style characteristic of late Tarentine coinage. |
