Reverse description Paeonian horseman in full military panoply, wearing a crested Attic helmet and cuirass, galloping vigorously to the right and thrusting his lance downward at a fallen Persian cavalryman who wears a kausia and flowing robes and clutches a round shield. The dynamic combat scene is rendered with exceptional artistic skill, conveying violent momentum. Beneath the horse's tail appears a thunderbolt, and to the right a bunch of grapes serves as a secondary symbol. The royal legend ΠΑΤΡΑΟΥ is inscribed in Greek characters within the field.
