Beschrijving keerzijde Facing bukranion (ox-skull) depicted full face at centre, with prominent horns curving outward and detailed facial features including eyes and muzzle rendered in relief. To the left within the same incuse square appears the civic abbreviation ΧΕΡ in archaic Greek characters, identifying the issuing city of Chersonesos. The entire design is contained within a recessed square incuse, a hallmark technique of early Archaic-period Carian civic coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Chersonesos in Caria was a small coastal settlement on the Ceramic Gulf, and its coinage from this period reflects the fractional silver conventions common to Aegean trade rather than any major civic ambition. The thirty-year window assigned to this issue overlaps with the aftermath of the Greco-Persian Wars, during which many Carian communities navigated an uncomfortable position between Persian administrative control and Hellenic cultural alignment. Whether this diobol circulated primarily in local exchange or found its way into broader Aegean commerce is unresolved, but the Rosen and Keckman references place it firmly within a recognizable regional fabric of small silver fractions.
