Æ20 - Polemon I

正面描述	A lion depicted in a bounding or pouncing attitude to the right, rendered in a bold, schematic style characteristic of Bosporan civic bronze coinage. A six-pointed star occupies the upper field above the animal. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show heavy patination consistent with ancient struck bronze, with no encircling legend.

附加信息	Polemon I came to the Bosporan throne not through dynastic succession but through Roman appointment — Augustus backed him as part of a broader effort to stabilize the northern Black Sea frontier after the collapse of the Mithridatic line. His reign was less a settled kingship than a prolonged military struggle; he spent much of it fighting to assert actual control over territories nominally under his rule, and was ultimately killed in battle against the Aspurgiani around 8 BC, the likely terminus of this issue.
