Triumphal Procession of Fame with Abundance and Victory [reverse]

Etienne Delaune

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicted on the coin shows multiple figures and a horse. Three human-like figures are seen seated in a chariot or similar structure, with another figure standing in front of them. The sculpture is rendered on a coin, suggesting it is made from metal, possibly bronze, with lighter patches indicating wear or corrosion. The figures are depicted in a detailed relief style, capturing a scene reminiscent of a historical or mythological narrative, with the horse adding movement. The coin's edge is inscribed with text.
