| Beschrijving keerzijde | Eight-rayed star, interpreted by some authorities as a comet, radiating symmetrically from a raised central boss, with elongated lanceolate rays filling the field. One ray terminates in a crescent, a distinguishing feature consistent with Pontic royal or civic celestial iconography. The design is boldly struck and fills the flan to its edges, with no surrounding legend. The motif is closely associated with the dynastic imagery of the Kingdom of Pontos and its allied cities during the late Hellenistic period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The attribution "uncertain Pontian city" reflects a genuine cataloging problem rather than scholarly laziness — Pontos in this period hosted several semi-autonomous coastal poleis whose bronze civic issues are nearly impossible to disentangle without mint marks or explicit ethnic legends. The references here cluster around the Black Sea corpus, which itself acknowledges the ambiguity.
HGC 7, 313 places this type within a grouping that some specialists have tentatively assigned to Amisos, though that remains contested.
