Reverse description Laureate and draped bust of Nero facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic portrait tradition of the Bosporan Kingdom. Behind the bust appears the royal monogram of Kotys I together with a pellet. The Pontic regnal era date ΔΝΤ (354, corresponding to 58 AD) is inscribed below the bust, serving as the primary chronological indicator for this issue. The composition reflects the dual authority of the Roman emperor and the Bosporan client king under whose reign the coin was struck.
