Both have reverse legends naming Neptune, but the Capricorn has very distinct goat horns, as opposed to the Hippocamp&#039;s much shorter horse ears, and, sometimes, a visible mane. Also, the Hippocamp is always officina 9 (signifiied by an N), while the Capricorn is always officina 6 (indicated by a sigma). Finally, the Hippocamp is actually more common and can face either left or right; the Capricorn is rather scarce and faces only right. Most of the Gallienus capricorns one sees are part of the legionary series, not the zoo series.
