| Reverse description | A prancing horse to the left occupies the central field, its body rendered with bold, plastic modeling characteristic of Eastern Celtic coinage. Above the horse, a stylized rider or rider's head appears, reduced to a schematic form with a dotted torque or collar around the neck, reflecting the Celtic tendency toward abstract representation. Beneath the horse, a series of degenerate pseudo-legend characters — derived from and imitating the Greek inscription of the Macedonian prototypes but rendered as meaningless, ornamental symbols — are disposed across the lower field. Additional pellets and abstract decorative elements fill the surrounding field. A plain, irregular flan edge completes the design. |
