| Reverse description | Amphora depicted centrally in high relief, its characteristic elongated body, narrow neck, and twin handles rendered with clarity. To the left of the amphora, a caduceus is visible in the field. The magistrate's name ΚΗΦΙΣΙ (Kephisid) appears to the right, with the ethnic ΧΙΟΣ completing the legend, identifying the issuing city of Chios. The inscription is arranged vertically in two columns flanking the central device, in characteristic late Hellenistic epigraphic style. |
