背面描述	Quadripartite incuse square divided into four quarters by two intersecting diagonals, with alternating raised and sunken sections in the characteristic Chersonesean formula. The two sunken quarters bear secondary devices: a small pellet in one and a selinon (celery or parsley) leaf in the other, serving as control marks to distinguish individual issues within this extensive coinage series.

附加信息	Chersonesos, the Thracian Chersonese peninsula, issued these hemidrachms in enormous quantities over roughly five decades, making them one of the most widely circulated silver coins of the fourth-century Aegean world. They functioned as a kind of regional trade currency absorbed into commercial networks stretching well beyond Thrace — hoards containing them have turned up across the Black Sea basin and into Anatolia. The sheer volume minted suggests an issuing authority more concerned with facilitating exchange than with asserting political distinctiveness. The type predates Philip II's consolidation of Macedonian power over the peninsula, which ended local autonomous coinage around 338 BC.
