| Reverse description | Bare head of Agrippa facing right, depicted with close-cropped hair and a strong, individualized portrait characteristic of late 1st century BC Bosporan die-cutting. To the left of the portrait appears the monogram ΜΔ, likely a mint or magistrate mark. Below the bust, the Bosporan regnal date ΘΠΣ (= year 289 of the Bosporan Era, corresponding to 9/8 BC) is inscribed in Greek numerals. The composition fills the flan with no surrounding border legend. |
