| Beschrijving keerzijde | Deep square incuse punch divided into four triangular sections by raised ridges meeting at a central point, forming a windmill or skew pattern. The incuse is executed in the mill-sail or swastika-like arrangement typical of early Archaic Greek coinage produced by the incuse technique. The raised ridges and depressed triangular compartments create a strong geometric contrast. No inscription or subsidiary symbol is present. The style is consistent with the earliest phase of Zakynthian silver coinage, circa 500–456 BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Zakynthos, the Ionian island off the western Peloponnesian coast, struck its early silver coinage during a period when the island maintained enough commercial independence to operate its own mint — no small matter given Corinthian dominance of nearby trade routes. The HGC 6, 219 type is a scarce issue; the Rosen collection example, one of the better-documented specimens, attests to how rarely these pieces appear in the trade in any condition.
