Nice... good price too. i only have the horse/palm tree variety, but i'd like to get a horsehead only one too.
Nice catch and for what about $20 USD. My only Carthage at the time would love to add to it soon enough. I need to try for a more worthy photo for this coin
I like this type too. Zeugitana, Carthage. 264-241 BC. Sardinian mint (?). Æ 19mm 3.8g. Obverse: Head of Tanit left. Reverse: Horse's head right; palm tree and pellet.

Horses are always beautiful and an instant hit! I don't have My Numidian horse anymore—I gave it away to a good friend. I do have a recently acquired Seleucid horse. This one—I'm not giving away—it's a keeper. Edited after remembering my manners: Thank you for a great post! @Andres2 ! Your coin is beautiful!
