| Reverse description | Standing draped female figure, likely Nike or a local deity, depicted frontally at center with arms extended, possibly holding a wreath or scepter; a stylized palm branch or standard appears to the right of the figure. The surrounding field is filled with a circular Greek inscription reading APXONTOΣ AΣANΔPOY ΒΟΣΠΟΡΟΥ Г, denoting the archonship of Asander over the Bosporus in his third regnal year. The lettering is arranged in a continuous legend encircling the central device, consistent with Bosporan royal coinage conventions of the mid-first century BC. |
