| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diademed and draped bust of Cleopatra III depicted to the right, rendered in the Hellenistic royal portrait tradition. The effigy displays characteristic Ptolemaic stylistic conventions, with the queen's hair elaborately arranged beneath a royal diadem. The flan is small and irregular, consistent with the low-denomination bronze coinage of the late Ptolemaic period. Surface patination and wear obscure finer details, though the portrait type remains identifiable within the Svoronos classification. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cleopatra III ruled jointly with her son Ptolemy IX until 107 BC, when she engineered his expulsion from Egypt in favor of his younger brother Ptolemy X — a politically calculated move that left her the dominant force behind the throne. These fractional bronzes circulated during the turbulent years of that co-regency with Ptolemy X, a period marked by persistent dynastic instability and Cleopatra III's unusually overt exercise of royal authority, including precedence over her own son in official documents.
