Reverse description A youthful jockey, nude and leaning forward in dynamic posture, rides a prancing horse to the right while holding a palm branch aloft in his raised right hand, commemorating Philip II's celebrated Olympic equestrian victories. Beneath the horse, a horizontal thunderbolt serves as a subsidiary device. The legend ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΥ ('of Philip') appears in the right field, and the letter N is inscribed in the exergue as a control mark or mint official's symbol.
