Beschrijving keerzijde Within a square incuse frame, a bipennis (labrys, double-bitted axe) is depicted facing upright at center, its broad symmetrical blades rendered in a simplified schematic style. A kantharos (two-handled wine cup) is positioned above the axe head at the top of the incuse square. The legend AMATOKO appears distributed around the design elements within the incuse frame, reading in Greek characters. The overall design is geometrically composed within the recessed square border.

Aanvullende informatie

Amatokos I ruled the Odrysian kingdom during a period of fragmentation following the death of Seuthes I, when the once-unified Thracian realm had splintered into competing dynastic factions. His coinage is rare precisely because his authority was geographically and politically constrained — he controlled only a portion of the original Odrysian territory, likely the eastern regions, while rival dynasts struck their own issues simultaneously.

Peykov's classification remains the primary reference for Odrysian bronzes, a series still poorly represented in major collections.
