Revenge of the fallen Horseman :)

I really like the execution of the reverse. 

KINGS of PAEONIA. Patraos. Circa 335-315 BC. AR Tetradrachm (24mm, 12.73 g, 10h). Astibos or Damastion mint. Laureate head of Apollo right / Warrior on horse rearing right, thrusting spear at enemy below who defends with shield; retrograde ME monogram behind horse’s rear legs. Paeonian Hoard 410–5 (same rev. die); Peykov E2140; HGC 3, 148 corr. (some with control marks). Toned, struck from slightly worn obverse die.
