| Reverse description | A horse standing still to the right, depicted in a naturalistic style characteristic of Carthaginian bronze coinage of the First Punic War period. The animal is shown in full profile with its head slightly lowered, four legs clearly delineated. A palm tree appears to the right of the horse, a recurring symbol of Carthaginian identity and fertility. The field is otherwise plain and uninscribed. |
