Obverse legend: Hercules' head wearing a lion's skin, facing right. Reverse legend: KALLATIA, next to a wheat ear and a club above and a quiver with a bow at the bottom. The second Pontic city that minted coins was Callatis. About the foundation in the late 6th century B.Chr. of the city of Callatis (today Mangalia), a colony of Dorian origin, there is information from Pseudo - Scymnos, showing that it was founded by the Greeks coming from Heracleea Pontic (today Eregli, in Turkey). The silver Kallatian coins had a relatively narrow circulation area, the number of known pieces being quite small, justified by the small number of discoveries. The first emissions of the colony Callatis are silver drachmas, minted according to the Aeginetic weight system (from Aegina) used also in cities like Heraclea Pontic, Byzantium and Sinope. On the obverse appears beardless Heracles, the mythical ancestor of the Greeks from Callatis, with the Nemean lion's skin on his head, and on the reverse, next to the wheat ear, are the Greek hero's weapons, the club, the bow and the quiver with arrows poisoned with the blood of the Lernian Hydra.
