Reverse description Head of a bridled horse facing right, rendered in fine incuse relief within a square incuse punch. The bridle is clearly delineated with careful engraving, and the horse's mane is indicated by a series of parallel strokes along the neck. The ethnic inscription ΠΕ appears within the incuse square, referencing the issuing people, the Perrhaiboi. The incuse square itself is deeply struck with sharply defined borders, characteristic of early Classical Thessalian mint practice.
