| Beschrijving voorzijde | Helmeted head of Ares facing right, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, rendered in the late Hellenistic style with flowing hair visible beneath the helmet. The portrait is boldly struck in high relief and occupies the central field, with the neck truncation visible at the lower edge. The workmanship reflects the artistic conventions of Pontic civic coinage of the first century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Amisos spent much of this period caught between Mithridates VI, who had incorporated the city into his Pontic kingdom and granted it a degree of civic autonomy, and the encroaching power of Rome. These small bronzes circulated during the decades bracketing the Third Mithridatic War, which ended with Pompey's final defeat of Mithridates in 63 BC and the subsequent reorganization of Pontos into a Roman province. The city's retention of limited minting rights under Mithridatic rule accounts for the civic character of issues like this one.
