Reverse description Upright amphora with pointed base and two handles depicted in bold relief at center, flanked on either side by the two-line Greek magistrate inscription. A grapevine with leaves and clusters of grapes encloses the entire composition, forming a wreath-like border that is characteristic of the Chian civic coinage of this period. The legend reading APTEMIΔΩPOΣ to the right and ΧΙΟΣ to the left identifies both the issuing city and the magistrate responsible for the emission.
