背面描述	Standing figure of Apollo facing, depicted frontally in a schematic archaic style, with arms outstretched and resting upon two tall tripod-like supports or laurel branches, one on each side. The figure is rendered in low relief typical of Klazomenaian civic bronze coinage. The abbreviated civic ethnic KΛA appears in the right field. The composition is characteristic of the Apollo cult imagery associated with Klazomenai during the fourth century BC.

附加信息	Klazomenai, an Ionian city on a peninsula near modern Urla in Turkey, was forcibly relocated to an offshore island by Alexander the Great — connected to the mainland by a causeway he ordered constructed. Small bronzes from this mint predate that disruption, circulating through a city still commercially active in the Aegean trade networks of the fourth century. The type is common enough in collections but rarely appears in consistent condition, given the notoriously porous fabric of early Ionian civic bronze.
