Obverse description A free horse prancing to the left in high relief, rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail characteristic of Thracian coinage of the period. The animal is depicted with forelegs raised in a spirited rearing posture, its mane finely engraved and flowing, its musculature rendered with accomplished artistry. The tail streams behind the hindquarters, and the legs show careful anatomical attention. The field is otherwise plain, with no legend or additional devices, the entire design occupying the broad flan to dramatic effect.
