| Beschrijving voorzijde | Jugate busts of King Rhoemetalces I, diademed, and his consort Pythodoris facing right, rendered in a Hellenistic style with fine portraiture detail. The king is depicted in the foreground with a diadem visible in his hair, while the queen appears slightly behind and to the left. A circular Greek legend surrounds the effigies in the field. The portrait style reflects a blend of Thracian royal iconography and Roman provincial artistic conventions. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rhoemetalkes I ruled as a client king under Augustus, having sided decisively with Rome during the upheavals following Caesar's assassination — a loyalty that earned him both his throne and an expanded territory after Actium. This coin, pairing his portrait with that of Augustus, was a deliberate public declaration of that subordinate alliance, not merely a conventional issue. The uncertain mint attribution has occupied specialists for decades; candidates include Bizye and Perinthos, but no consensus has held.
