正面描述 Forepart (protome) of a horse facing left, rendered in low relief with naturalistic detail including mane and musculature, set within a beaded (pearled) border encircling the field. The horse's forelegs are raised, conveying a sense of spirited movement. The style is characteristic of Thracian Odrysian bronze coinage of the fourth century BC.

背面描述 Front-facing skyphos (a deep, two-handled wine cup) depicted in low relief at centre of the field, its distinctive loop handles projecting laterally at either side of the body. Above the vessel, the royal inscription KO TY appears in Greek characters, referencing the Odrysian king Kotys I. The design is contained within a plain, slightly raised circular border, consistent with the coarse hammered fabric typical of Thracian royal bronzes.

附加信息

Kotys I ruled the Odrysian kingdom at its second peak of regional dominance, having rebuilt Thracian power after the fragmentation that followed Seuthes I. His reign ended in 359 BC when he was assassinated — allegedly by the comic playwright Python of Aenos, a detail preserved by Aristotle in the Politics as an example of tyrannicide motivated by personal grievance rather than political principle.

Bronze issues attributable to his reign remain poorly die-studied, and the Peykov corpus still represents the primary reference for systematic attribution of Odrysian bronzes as a whole.
