Reverse description The reverse presents a similarly flat to slightly concave surface with a prominent central spine or rib running the full length of the piece, a structural feature typical of cast arrowhead money from the Black Sea region. The surface is heavily corroded and encrusted with calcareous deposits and cuprite, revealing the typical dark olive-green patina of buried bronze. No inscription, device, or decorative element is present; the form itself served as the sole identifier of value.
