Reverse description Quadripartite incuse square divided by two crossing lines into four triangular compartments, a standard feature of early Thracian and Chersonesos silver coinage. In the upper right quarter, a pellet-in-annulet symbol (circular device with a central dot and a small projecting element resembling a trident or triple line) serves as a control mark. In the lower left quarter, an arrowhead or spearhead device is incused as a secondary control symbol. The remaining two quarters are plain and deeply recessed. These variable control marks in opposing quarters are characteristic of the long-running Chersonesos hemidrachm series and allow for die and issue identification.
