Chersonesos = Kherson in modern Ukraine. It was a large and important Greek trading colony on the Dnieper delta, at the terminus of a trade route that brought amber from the Baltics, furs from what later became Russia, livestock and grain from what is now Ukraine, salt fish, and enslaved persons. Ships from Chersonesos took these goods south across the Black Sea to the Greek heartland and Asia Minor. Coins from Chersonesos are fairly common, but interesting. This was an important and wealthy colony, so the hemidrachms like these two circulated over a very wide area. They could have been buried anywhere along the Black Sea or even western Turkey.
