Tye #33 jital

I have this jital, which seems to be Tye #33. But which subtype is it from this page?

Any help is appreciated.
To me the writing seems similar to the Samanta Deva type, Tye 14.

Here's another good source for comparisons

The second photo should be rotated 180 degrees -- it shows the belly and legs of the horse and a downward-pointing spear.

​Thank you! But isn't Tye 14 a silver one and not a billon jital?
Billon covers a range from high silver content to low silver content, and generally speaking the earlier bull & horseman coins had more silver and the later ones less silver (I think probably all were billon, not pure silver). I think it's possible to have a Tye 14 with relatively low silver content, but perhaps someone more knowledgeable on these coins can shed additional light on the subject.
