| Reverse description | A trident displayed vertically in the central field, flanked by two lines of Greek inscription divided above and below the trident head. The upper legend reads ΠΡΟΜΑ and the lower legend reads ΚΑΛΛΑ, together forming a magistrate's name (Promas) and an abbreviation of the city name Kallatis. The bold, deeply incised Greek lettering is arranged in two registers around the central device, consistent with Hellenistic civic bronze coinage conventions. The trident is a standard emblem of Poseidon and the sea, reflecting Kallatis's identity as a Black Sea Greek colony. |
