Silver coin struck for a victory in the mule-cart race. In ancient Olympia, there was a race for carts drawn by a team of two mules. However, due to an ancient curse on mules bred within the sacred area of Olympia, this sport was included for only fourteen Olympic games. Noticeable is the characteristic high seat of all mule-carts. CM 1946,0101.1084.
