Reverse description Stylised horse advancing to the left, ridden by a schematic rider whose form has been reduced to near-abstract Celtic ornamental elements. The horse's body is rendered with a bold, rounded outline, its legs depicted as elongated pellet-tipped appendages, and its flowing mane and tail indicated by wavy lines. A row of pellets is visible beneath the horse in the lower field, a characteristic decorative element of the Slovak tetradrachm type. The entire composition reflects the advanced Celticisation of the Macedonian tetradrachm prototype, with naturalistic detail replaced by dynamic abstract patterning.
