| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized leaf depicted in the central field, oriented vertically, with a satrapal monogram positioned in the upper field above the leaf. The design is boldly struck but shows the characteristic irregularity of hammered copper coinage from the Persian satrapal administration of Hellespontine Phrygia. The field surrounding the devices is plain, with no border or exergual line present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Achaemenid satrapy of Phrygia, administered from Dascylium, occupied an awkward monetary position — Persian imperial silver dominated long-distance trade, while Greek city coinages handled local exchange. Small copper fractions like this chalkous filled the gap at the lowest register of daily commerce, the sort of transaction no silver fraction was worth the trouble of making change for.
