THRACO-MACEDONIAN TRIBES, Bisaltai(?). Mosses. Circa 470 BC. AR Drachm (15.5mm, 3.02 g, 12h). Horse and horseman, wearing petasos and holding two spears, standing right; helmet to upper left / MO-[Σ-Σ]E-Ω around quadripartite square; all within incuse square. Peykov C0100; CNG E-354, lot 39. Near VF, toned, some roughness. Rare.Based on the style of the coins, Raymond argues that this dynast was not of the Bisaltai (Raymond p. 115, n. 4), but rather an independent tribal chieftain who retained a semblance of autonomy while paying tribute to Alexander I of Macedon. Most references retain the Bisaltai attribution, though, and placement among the Paeonian kings (ANS) is even more conjectural. Descripción
