| Beschrijving keerzijde | Incuse square of quadripartite design struck deeply into the flan, its interior adorned with a symmetrical arrangement of palmettes and stylized floral motifs. Four flowering buds or rosettes are positioned at the cardinal points within the square, with palmette fronds radiating outward from the center toward each corner, creating an elegant decorative pattern typical of late archaic Aeolian civic coinage. No legend is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kyme was among the earliest Greek settlements on the Aeolian coast of Asia Minor and one of the first cities in the region to adopt coinage, placing this issue at the very beginning of that transition. The incuse square punch on the reverse — standard for early electrum and silver issues of western Anatolia — reflects minting technique inherited directly from Lydian practice, whose kingdom had only recently fallen to Cyrus the Great when these pieces were being struck.
