背面描述	Quadripartite incuse square divided into four quarters by raised bands, with alternating raised and sunken quarters in the standard Cherronesian arrangement. A pellet appears to the left of the AΓ monogram, both elements occupying one of the sunken quarters, while a ram's head facing right is depicted in the diagonally opposite sunken quarter. The raised quarters are plain. This reverse type is characteristic of the autonomous coinage of Cherronesos in Thrace.

附加信息	Chersonesos — the Thracian peninsula colony, not to be confused with the Crimean settlement of the same name — struck these hemidrachms in enormous quantities throughout the fourth century, and they circulated far beyond their home region. The type was effectively a regional trade currency across the northern Aegean and into Thrace, accepted by weight rather than by issuing authority. Philip II of Macedon's campaigns through the region in the 340s disrupted the colony's autonomy significantly, and the terminal date of this series corresponds closely with his effective absorption of Thracian coastal settlements.
