| Beschrijving keerzijde | A torch depicted upright in the center of the field, flanked to the left by the Greek letter Ε and to the right by Ρ, serving as an abbreviation for ΕΡΜΙΟΝΕΩΝ (Hermioneans). The entire device is enclosed within a wreath of grain ears, with the stalks curving around the circumference of the flan to meet at the base, a design emblematic of the city's close association with Demeter Chthonia and her cult at Hermione. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hermione, the small Argolid city on the southern coast of the Peloponnese, maintained a stubbornly independent mint despite being perpetually overshadowed by Argos. The city's coinage output was modest, and the chalkon — the lowest practical bronze denomination — circulated almost exclusively within the immediate local economy. BCD 1297 distinguishes this variety by its regular letter forms, separating it from related issues with retrograde or irregular epigraphy that suggest different hands at the die-cutting bench.
