Reverse description A triskeles motif occupies the central field, its three curvilinear legs radiating from a common hub in a rotational arrangement, executed in low relief within a deeply struck circular incuse. The entire device is enclosed by a fine dotted border following the circumference of the incuse depression. Above the triskeles, the Lycian letter 'K' — the initial of the dynast Kuprilli — appears in the upper field, serving as an abbreviated dynastic identifier. The incuse square itself displays the characteristic quadripartite depression of archaic hammered technique.
