| Obverse description | A griffin shown in dynamic springing posture to the left, with wings spread and forelegs raised, rendered in bold relief typical of Chersonesian civic bronze coinage. The creature's eagle head, folded wings with incised feather detail, and lion-like haunches are clearly articulated. The Greek inscription ΧΕΡ appears in the lower field below the figure, serving as an abbreviation for Chersonesos and affirming the civic origin of the issue. |
