| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare or turreted head of a female deity — most likely Tyche or Roma — facing right, rendered in a Hellenistic style with softly modeled features and flowing hair swept back. The portrait is positioned centrally within the field and displays fine die-cutting typical of Pontic civic issues of the late Republican period. Partial legend appears in the left and right fields, reading C F I (Colonia Iulia Felix) and the year numeral AN XI (year 11), the latter indicating the eleventh year of the Pontic colony's reckoning. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, consistent with provincial bronze coinage of this era. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Julius Caesar refounded Sinope as a Roman colony in 47/46 BC — one of his earliest colonial foundations in the eastern provinces — resettling it with veterans and freedmen and stripping it of its old Pontic civic identity almost immediately. The magistrate name Sulpicius Rufus appears on this issue as a local duovir or colonial official, the EX D D formula indicating the senate's decree authorizing the striking. Colonial bronze of this very first generation is scarce; most survivors show heavy wear from active use in a newly monetized population.
