| Reverse description | A horse galloping vigorously to the right, rendered with dynamic energy in the Numidian tradition, its legs fully extended in a flying gallop and tail streaming behind. The horse occupies the central field, set within a beaded border. A Neo-Punic legend arcs above the horse in the upper field, reading IOBA HMMLKT, identifying Juba as king in the indigenous script. The design reflects the strong equestrian cultural tradition of Numidia, a region renowned throughout the ancient world for its cavalry. The composition is compact and fluid, making effective use of the small flan. |
