| 背面描述 | An upright sword or short sword (machaira) set vertically in the center of the field, flanked on either side by leafy olive or laurel branches extending outward symmetrically. The legend ΑΜΙΣΟΥ is distributed in the field around the central devices, identifying the issuing city. The overall composition is characteristic of the autonomous civic bronze coinage of Amisos during the Mithridatic period. |

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.
