| 背面描述 | Two deep incuse square punches dominating the reverse field, characteristic of the hammered coinage technique employed at the Lydian mint. The punches are irregularly positioned and vary slightly in depth, creating a striated, stepped surface within each depression. The surrounding flan retains a smooth, slightly convex gold surface with no additional devices, legends, or symbols. This reverse type is consistent throughout the Kroisos light-weight gold series and served primarily as a mechanical countermark to confirm the coin's metal content. |

Kroisos reformed the Lydian monetary system around 560 BC by separating gold and silver coinage into parallel denominations — a structural innovation that influenced how Greek cities and later Persian administrators organized bimetallic treasuries. The so-called "light" designation distinguishes this series from the earlier heavy standard, reflecting a deliberate weight reduction that brought Lydian gold into closer alignment with trade weights used across western Anatolia.
Croesus was still issuing these when Cyrus the Great took Sardis in 546 BC, and the Achaemenid administration continued striking the type afterward — meaning not every example bearing this design was minted by the king whose name it carries.
