Reverse description Amphora with tall neck and pointed base depicted in high relief at the centre of the field, flanked on either side by the divided ethnic and magistrate's name arranged in two vertical columns reading ΧΙΟΣ to the left and ΦΙΛΤΗΣ to the right. The amphora, a recurring civic type on Chian bronzes, is boldly struck and dominates the design. The Greek lettering is disposed around the central motif in the manner typical of late Classical Chian civic issues.
