| Beschrijving voorzijde | Equestrian figure in right profile, depicted as a rider wearing a billowing chlamys, the cloak streaming behind in dynamic motion; the rider's right arm is raised in a gesture of greeting or salutation. The style is characteristic of Thracian royal coinage of the fourth century BC, rendered with bold, somewhat archaic workmanship typical of the Odrysian mint tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kotys I ruled the Odrysian kingdom at its greatest territorial extent, pushing Thracian influence deep into the Chersonese and maintaining enough leverage over Athens to extract tribute rather than pay it. He was assassinated in 359 BC by a disgruntled Greek craftsman named Python of Ainos, an event Demosthenes later cited approvingly. The coinage attributed to his reign is poorly stratified chronologically, and the distinction between Type I and Type II issues remains debated in the scholarship — Jurukova's classification is widely used but not universally accepted.
