| Obverse description | Diademed and draped bust of King Rhoemetalces facing right, the royal diadem clearly rendered across the brow. The effigy is rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with fine detail to the hair and drapery. The Greek legend ΒΑϹΙΛΕΩϹ ΡΟΙΜΗΤΑΛΚΟΥ curves around the field, identifying the ruler as king. On certain specimens, a Herculean club appears in the field before the bust as an additional royal symbol. |
