| Obverse description | Seated male figure, likely a river god or local deity, facing right in three-quarter view, depicted nude or lightly draped, resting upon rocks or ground; the figure holds a staff or sceptre upright in the left hand. The Greek legend KEPKI appears vertically to the left of the figure in the field, identifying the issuing city of Cercinitis. The rendering is typical of provincial Tauric Chersonnese bronze coinage of the early Hellenistic period, executed in a bold if somewhat archaic style. |
