Beschrijving keerzijde 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.

Aanvullende informatie

Chios enjoyed unusual autonomy among Aegean island states during this period, having sided strategically with Alexander during his campaigns rather than resisting — a calculation that preserved its civic institutions and allowed continued local bronze production while much of the Greek world was absorbed into Macedonian administrative structures. The magistrate name Philtes appearing on this issue is one of several known from Chian bronze of this period, suggesting a rotating eponymous system for mint oversight rather than a permanent official.
