Reverse description Draped bust of a youthful male figure, likely a dynastic portrait of Aspurgus or an associated royal personage, facing right with curly hair, set within a circular border. To the left of the bust, the Greek inscription ΒΑΡ appears in two lines, with ΔΛΤ positioned below, denoting the royal title and the Bosporan regnal year 334 (corresponding to 38 AD). The design follows the established typology of Bosporan gold staters, combining a royal portrait with abbreviated titulature and the Pontic era date.
