Abstract :
The present article discusses an issue hitherto not covered well in specialist literature. The emergence of new material and studies of the early coins of Chersonesus (with neither names nor monograms of magistrates on them) in terms of their die-images allow us to investigate how the Chersonesus mint functioned, as well as the methods of control over the minting process used in its early stages, and the amount of production in the first half of the 4th century BC.
