| Obverse description | Armored warrior on horseback advancing to the right, wearing a helmet and cuirass, depicted in dynamic military posture. The rider is shown in profile, controlling a prancing horse rendered with considerable artistic vitality. Beneath the horse, a small male figure kneels in a running or fallen pose, possibly representing a vanquished enemy. A circular symbol, likely a wheel or shield device, appears in the lower field beneath the horse's belly. The composition reflects the Achaemenid-influenced artistic tradition characteristic of late 5th-century Cilician coinage. |
