| Beschrijving keerzijde | Incuse square divided into four compartments by a raised cross or mill-sail pattern, a hallmark of early archaic Greek coinage technique. Within the incuse, the quadripartite design shows alternating raised and recessed sections, creating a distinctive windmill or swastika-like arrangement in low relief. The overall surface is deeply impressed and somewhat irregular, consistent with hand-hammered production. One compartment appears to contain a small raised pellet or boss. No legends or inscriptions are present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lindos, one of the three major city-states of Rhodes before the synoikism of 408 BC merged them into the unified polis of Rhodes, struck its own independent coinage during this period. The diobol denomination placed this squarely in everyday transactional use — too small for major commerce, too valuable to be disposable.
BMC Greek #3 places this among the earliest identifiable Lindian issues, predating the political consolidation that would effectively end the city's autonomous mint.
