| Reverse description | A charioteer, identified tentatively as Taras, depicted facing right and driving a fast-moving biga (two-horse chariot). The figure holds the reins in the right hand and a trident in the left, evoking the city's divine founder and its maritime identity. A star appears in the upper field above the horses, and below the horses the magistrate's monogram KΛH appears above a downward-oriented dolphin in the exergual area. |
