| Reverse description | A bow in its case (gorytos) depicted horizontally across the center of the field, with an arrow below it pointing to the left — emblems closely associated with Mithridates VI and the royal Pontic-Bosporan tradition. The Greek civic legend ΠΑΝΤΙΚΑΠΑΙΤΩΝ (of the Panticapaeans) is distributed in two lines around the central devices, with ΠΑΝΤΙΚΑ arching above and ΠΑΙΤΩΝ below, filling the field. The composition is compact and boldly struck, consistent with the Panticapaeum mint style of this era. |
