| Reverse description | A fish depicted in profile swimming to the right occupies the upper field, its body rendered with a curved, naturalistic outline and incised fin detail. Below the fish, a Heraklean club is shown horizontally pointing to the right. In the lower portion of the field, the Greek inscription ΧΕΡ appears in three large letters, serving as an abbreviated ethnic identifying the city of Chersonesos. The composition is simple and bold, consistent with the small module of this denomination. |
