| Reverse description | A bull charging and butting to the right, depicted in a robust, energetic stance with head lowered and forelegs bent in motion. The animal is rendered in high relief with musculature suggested by broad flat surfaces typical of Bosporan provincial bronze coinage. The abbreviated Greek legend ΘΕΟΔΟ arcs above the bull in the upper field, identifying the issuing city of Theodosia. |
