| Reverse description | A horse standing to right in a naturalistic stance, its tail raised and musculature crisply engraved in the archaic tradition. The royal ethnic legend AMYNTA (abbreviated form of AMYNTА) is arranged around the type within a linear border, the whole contained within a shallow incuse square — a hallmark of early Macedonian silver coinage. The composition reflects the paramount importance of horse-breeding and cavalry to the Macedonian royal house. |
