Understanding that others have already posted a gajillion coins with horses, I thought that I would go for participation points by showing only my oldest coins with horses. Most have appeared on other CCF threads, but here are those 7, all of which were minted more than 2000 years ago: 1. Cleitor Drachm (400-322 BC) 2. Paeonian Kingdom Tet (335-315 BC) 3. Bolskan Iberia Denarius (180-20 BC) 4. Roman Republic Denarius (137 BC) 5. Roman Republic Denarius (ca. 90 BC) 6. Senones Tribe/Celtic Gaul Potin (80-20 BC) 7. Indo-Scythian Empire Tet (35 BC-5 AD) #1   #2   #3   #4   #5   #6   #7
