Tetradrachm: Quadriga (obverse); Head of Artemis/Arethousa (reverse)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The coin on the left features a quadriga, a chariot drawn by four horses, moving to the right. The horses are depicted in a side view, with the charioteer standing and holding reins. The coin on the right shows a female head facing right, with her hair pulled back and adorned with a fillet. The background of both coins appears to be textured and metallic, likely silver or another metal, with visible signs of wear and tear.
