| 裏面の説明 | A single deep incuse square punch dominates the reverse, characteristic of early archaic hammered coinage produced in Asia Minor during the late 7th to early 6th century BC. The punch is irregularly defined with rough, uneven surfaces resulting from the primitive striking technique, with no figurative design or inscription present. The incuse impression is slightly off-center on the flan, typical of the variable alignment associated with hand-struck electrum fractions of this period. |

The Cimmerians — a nomadic people expelled from the Pontic steppe by Scythian pressure around 700 BC — swept through Anatolia with enough force to sack Gordion and threaten the major Greek coastal cities. Whether they struck coinage themselves or whether these small electrum fractions were produced by Lydian or Ionian mints and merely attributed to them by later cataloguers remains genuinely contested. The BMC attribution has never achieved full scholarly consensus.
