| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with wavy hair secured beneath a laurel wreath and a long lock descending behind the neck. The facial features are finely modelled with a straight profile, prominent chin, and sensitively rendered eye. The field is otherwise plain, with the portrait occupying the majority of the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mithridates VI of Pontus absorbed the Bosporan Kingdom around 107 BC after the death of Parisades V, who reportedly ceded control rather than face a Scythian uprising he couldn't suppress alone. These drachms were struck as Mithridates consolidated his hold over the northern Black Sea territories, using the Bosporan mint infrastructure he had inherited to project Pontic authority across a region critical to his grain supply and mercenary recruitment networks.
The GCV 3619 attribution places this firmly within the early Pontic-Bosporan administrative coinage, distinct from his later regal issues struck at Amisus and Sinope.
