<p>[QUOTE="JeffC, post: 6532087, member: 90913"]Do you have coins or medals with warriors, royalties or anyone on a horse? At first I thought I didn't have much but after doing some digging, I've got quite a few. I'd like to share some of mine with you. Post yours please, <i>especially if you've got a design of a <b>woman</b> on a horse</i>. I don't have any. Well, here are my coins (and medals) with someone on a horse, in no particular order:</p><p><br /></p><p>[1] 1999 Delaware Statehood Quarter and 2016 North Dakota ATB Quarter.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1261384[/ATTACH] </p><p>[2] 1935 Pony Express Medal - 75th Anniversary. The Reverse shows the Relay Station where they changed ponies.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1261363[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[3] 1960 Pony Express Medal - Centennial. The Pony Express lasted only about a year. <b>Do you know why?</b></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1261362[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[4] 1951 Great Britain 5 Shillings and 2007 Russia 10 Kopeks. St. George astride a horse, slaying the Dragon or Serpent.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1261392[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[5] 1973 Canada 25-cent piece.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1261405[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[6] A Medal (in a series commemorating the Battle of Gettysburg) about the temporary defeat and retreat of Union forces at McPherson Ridge. (Remember your History classes?)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1261370[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[7] Golden State Mint copper rounds, showing Chief Red Horse, in full headdress and spear, and a Sioux Chief on a horse, appealing to the Great Spirit. There's a real statue of the latter in Boston.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1261395[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[8] From one of my favorite series - <i>The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse</i> - these are the White Horse of Conquest, Red Horse of War, Black Horse of Famine, and Pale Horse of Death.
