| Obverse description | Nude youth (dioskouros) seated on horseback to the right, leaning forward with arm extended; a second horse walks to the left behind. Magistrate's letters ΙΩ appear above in the upper field, with NEY and MH inscribed in two lines beneath the horses in the lower field. The composition reflects the characteristic Tarentine equestrian iconography of the period, rendered in fine Hellenistic style on an irregular flan. |
