To the left of the portrait appears the royal monogram BAP (for Basileus Aspurgos, King Aspurgus), and below the bust the Greek date letters ΖΙΤ, corresponding to Bosporan era year 317 (21 AD). The composition is well-centered, with the monogram and date inscription serving as the primary identifying legends in the field. |
