| Beschrijving keerzijde | Laureate head of the Roman emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in a classicizing Roman portrait style within a beaded border. A spearhead or sceptre appears upright in the field before the portrait, a characteristic device on Bosporan staters of this period. In the lower exergual area, the Greek date letters ΓΜΥ are prominently displayed, corresponding to Bosporan era year 443 (147 AD). The reverse reflects the political dependence of the Bosporan kingdom on Rome through the use of the reigning emperor's portrait alongside the local dynastic obverse. |

Rhoemetalces was a client king ruling the Bosporan Kingdom under Roman suzerainty, and coins of this reign are notable for the deliberate pairing of local dynastic authority with imperial imagery — a political balancing act the Bosporan kings had maintained for generations. By the reign of Antoninus Pius, this arrangement had become so institutionalized that Bosporan gold staters functioned almost as proxy issues, their acceptability tied directly to Roman political favor rather than independent monetary standing.
Anokhin 1673 is among the rarer stater types of Rhoemetalces, with surviving examples thin enough that die-linkage studies remain incomplete.
