The Odrysian Kingdom was a state union of Thracian tribes existing between the 5th and 3rd centuries B.C. It consisted mainly of present-day Bulgaria, parts of Northern Dobruja, parts of Northern Greece and parts of modern-day European Turkey. This type has traditionally been attributed to Parion, Mysia or as a Celtic imitative of the Parion type. Based on find locations in the area of Plovdiv, Haskova, Stara Zagora and Yambol in Bulgaria, Topalov has reattributed this imitative type to the Thracian Odrysian Kingdom. He notes they may have been struck by a tribal mint or by one of the Greek cities within Odrysian territory to pay their annual tax to the tribe.|Odrysian| |Kingdom| in |Thrace|
