| Obverse description | Free horse prancing to left, rendered with considerable naturalistic energy, its mane flowing and forelegs raised in spirited motion. The musculature of the animal is boldly modelled in high relief, characteristic of the accomplished die-cutting tradition of Thracian mints in the fourth century BC. A trident symbol appears in the lower field beneath the horse, serving as a civic or magistrate's mark. The field is otherwise plain, with no legend or border. The flan is broad and irregularly shaped, typical of hand-struck coinage of the period. |
