Three togated figures advancing right in procession: a Roman consul flanked by two lictors, each bearing a fasces over the shoulder, rendered in a style closely derived from the silver denarii of Marcus Junius Brutus (54 BC). The legend ΚΟΣΩΝ appears in the field, written in Greek characters. Two principal variants are known: one bearing a BR monogram to the left of the procession (RPC I#1701A), variously interpreted as an abbreviation for Brutus or as B(asile)r(eus) signifying 'King Koson'; and a second variant without the monogram (RPC I#1701B). The composition is strongly imitative of Roman Republican coinage in its iconographic program. |

An eagle displayed standing to the left upon a horizontal sceptre, with wings slightly raised; it grasps a laurel wreath in its right talon. The design is derived from the reverse type of the silver denarii issued by Pomponius Rufus (73 BC). The field is unlettered, the composition centred and boldly struck. The eagle motif reflects Hellenistic royal iconography as well as the Roman Republican die-cutting tradition from which it was adapted. No exergual inscription or additional devices are present. |
