Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised upright ear of grain — most likely barley — occupies the centre of the field, its awns splaying outward at the tip in a distinctive fan-like arrangement typical of Panticapaean coinage. The Greek legend ΠΑΝ (an abbreviation for Panticapaeum) is inscribed in the lower field beneath the grain ear. A control monogram appears in the left field, serving as an administrative mark of the issuing authority. The design is boldly struck though the small flan results in some peripheral weakness. The overall composition reflects the long-standing civic iconography of Panticapaeum, celebrating the region's grain trade.

Aanvullende informatie

Camasarye ruled the Bosporan Kingdom jointly with her son Parisades V during the mid-second century BC, an arrangement that reflects the unusual degree of political authority Bosporan queens could hold — a pattern with few parallels in the Greek world outside Egypt. The joint reign itself was brief and poorly documented, which accounts for the extreme scarcity of this denomination; the diobol was struck in tiny numbers relative to the bronze issues that dominated everyday Bosporan commerce. Panticapaeum, the kingdom's capital on the Crimean peninsula, was the sole mint.
