Beschrijving keerzijde Quadripartite incuse square divided into four quarters by raised linear bars, creating two diagonally opposed raised (relief) sections and two sunken (incuse) sections in a characteristic mill-sail pattern. One raised quarter contains a monogram accompanied by a pellet, while the diagonally opposite raised quarter bears two crossed arrowheads with a pellet. The incuse quarters remain plain. This reverse type is the standard and long-running design of the Chersonesos hemidrachm series, with the symbols serving as magistrate or issue identifiers.

Aanvullende informatie

Chersonesos (the Thracian Chersonese, modern Gallipoli peninsula) issued these hemidrachms continuously for well over a century, which explains the extraordinary die variety within the series — scholars have catalogued hundreds of distinct control mark combinations on the reverse. The coins functioned as a regional trading currency across the northern Aegean, and their production outlasted Athenian dominance of the straits entirely.

The date range brackets Philip II's campaigns in Thrace, culminating in his absorption of the peninsula around 338 BC, which ended autonomous civic minting here.
