| Obverse description | Bare male head of the Odrysian king Metokos facing right, rendered in fine archaic Greek style with carefully detailed curling hair and a short beard. The portrait is set within a shallow incuse field, exhibiting the characteristic artistic conventions of Thracian coinage of the early fourth century BC. The legend ΜΗΤΟΚΟ appears in Greek characters behind the head, identifying the ruler. |
