背面描述 Poseidon Pelagaios standing to left in the nude, his right foot raised and resting upon a rocky outcrop, his right hand resting upon his right thigh, and his left hand firmly grasping an upright trident. The god is portrayed in a relaxed contrapposto pose consistent with Hellenistic sculptural influence. Monograms appear in the inner left and right fields. The reverse legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΔΗΜΗΤΡΙΟΥ flanks the deity, identifying the issuer as King Demetrios, with the mint of Amphipolis attributed on the basis of style and monogram.

附加信息

Demetrius I earned his epithet "Poliorcetes" — the Besieger — at Rhodes in 305 BC, where his elaborate siege machinery failed to take the city despite a year-long campaign. The Rhodians sold the abandoned equipment and used the proceeds to commission the Colossus. By the time this Amphipolis issue was struck, Demetrius held the Macedonian throne, having seized it in 294 BC by murdering Alexander V.

The Amphipolis mint was among the most productive in his kingdom during this short final reign, which ended when Pyrrhus and Lysimachus jointly drove him from Macedonia in 288 BC — leaving him to die a prisoner of Seleucus I in 283 BC.
