| Beschrijving keerzijde | Quadripartite incuse square divided into four quarters, alternating between raised and sunken fields in the standard Chersonesos arrangement. In one of the sunken quarters, an amphora is depicted; in the diagonally opposite sunken quarter, a pellet appears alongside the VE monogram serving as a mint control mark. The raised quarters are plain, creating a distinctive contrasting geometric pattern characteristic of early Thracian silver coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Chersonesos in Thrace struck hemidrachms almost continuously from the late fifth century through the Macedonian absorption of the region, and the sheer volume and variety of control marks — dots, monograms, amphoras, and combinations thereof — reflects a mint operating under successive civic, Persian-influenced, and eventually Macedonian commercial pressures. The specific pairing of a dot with the VE monogram and amphora as controls helps narrow this piece within a sprawling series that numismatists have spent generations attempting to sequence.
These coins circulated aggressively across the Black Sea trade network, turning up in hoards from the Crimea to the Aegean.
