| Obverse description | Nude warrior wearing a breastplate, mounted on horseback galloping to right, brandishing a javelin in his raised right hand. The rider is depicted in dynamic motion with fine engraving typical of Tarentine coinage of the late period. The partial inscription ΙΠΠΟΔΑ appears in the field, representing the magistrate name Hippodamas. The composition conveys martial energy characteristic of the Tarentine nomos tradition. |
