| Reverse description | A cista mystica — the sacred basket of Dionysiac cult — shown in three-quarter perspective, draped with a panther skin whose spotted hide falls over the sides; a thyrsos, the staff of Dionysos, rests diagonally against or behind the cista. Monograms appear to the left and right of the cista in the field, serving as magistrate or mint control marks. The ethnic legend ΑΜΙΣΟΥ in Greek characters is disposed in the field, identifying the issuing city of Amisos. |
