| Beschrijving voorzijde | A winged sphinx is depicted seated to the left, its right forepaw raised and resting upon the prow of a galley, rendered in the local Chian artistic tradition. The creature's feathered wings are prominently detailed, rising above its leonine body, while the human head is shown in profile. The divided legend ΤΡΙΑ ΑϹϹΑΡΙΑ is distributed in the field to either side of the central type, denoting the denomination of three assaria. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Chios operated under the Roman conventus system headquartered at Pergamum, which grouped Aegean island communities together for judicial and administrative purposes without stripping them of the right to strike local bronze. The triassarion denomination — worth three asses in the provincial tariff system — was the workhorse of everyday exchange in the eastern Aegean during the Trajanic and Hadrianic periods, when Rome actively encouraged civic coinage as a tool of local self-administration.
The ΧΙΩΝ ethnic inscription places this firmly within the island's autonomous civic issues rather than the koinon coinage of the broader Ionian league.
