Beschrijving voorzijde Diademed and bearded male head facing right, rendered in a vigorous Hellenistic style with deeply modelled curling hair and full beard. The royal diadem is tied at the back, its ends visible behind the neck. The portrait displays strong, individualistic facial features characteristic of late Hellenistic Thracian dynastic coinage. The field is plain and unlettered. The overall style reflects local Thracian die-cutting of the late second century BC.

Aanvullende informatie

The Caeni were a minor Thracian tribe whose autonomous bronze coinage was struck during a period when Roman influence over the region was tightening but not yet absolute — roughly the decades following the final destruction of Carthage and Corinth. Mostis was a local dynast whose name appears on several tribal bronzes, suggesting a degree of monetized political authority unusual for a people of the Caeni's size. These small bronzes circulated within a tight geographic range along the lower Hebros valley.

The CN type 5210 grouping remains sparsely documented, with die studies still incomplete.
