| Reverse description | A kantharos (two-handled wine cup) depicted facing, with prominent loop handles flanking a broad, tapering body set on a short foot. The three Greek letters forming the royal monogram of Kotys I are distributed around the kantharos: kappa (Κ) above, tau (Τ) to the lower left, and omicron (Ο) to the lower right. The design is centered within a plain, smooth field, the kantharos serving as both a dynastic emblem and a religious symbol associated with Thracian cult practice. |
