| Reverse description | A youthful jockey, nude and leaning forward in a dynamic riding posture, mounted on a horse walking to the right while holding a palm branch in his raised hand, symbolizing victory. Beneath the horse, a serpent coiled to the right serves as a secondary device. In the exergue, a Boeotian shield is depicted, likely referencing Macedonian military alliances or conquests. The ethnic legend ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΥ runs vertically along the right field, identifying the coin as issued in the name of Philip. The composition is balanced and typical of the posthumous tetradrachm series struck at Pella. |
