| Aanvullende informatie |
Rhescuporis II ruled the Bosporan Kingdom as a client of Rome, and his coinage reflects that dependency directly — the pairing of his own portrait with that of the reigning emperor was not artistic flattery but political currency, a visible declaration of subordination that kept Roman trade routes and military backing intact. Caracalla's co-appearance here dates the issue to a specific window of alignment between the two powers.
The electrum content of Bosporan staters had been declining steadily for over a century by this point, a debasement that accelerated under Rhescuporis II's dynasty as local silver supplies thinned.
