Bosporus, kings of. Thorthoses (285-309 AD). Stater (No reserve price)
The Bosporan Kingdom, located around the Kerch Strait, was a client state blending Greek and local influences. King Thorthoses ruled circa 285-309 AD during Roman times, issuing staters — gold or electrum coins modeled after Greek standards. These staters served both economic and diplomatic functions, reflecting the kingdom’s wealth and its role as a regional power balancing Roman and local interests. Coins of Thorthoses are prized by collectors for their artistry and for illustrating the cultural syncretism of the Bosporan realm in late antiquity.
