背面描述	Quadripartite incuse square divided by a raised cross into four roughly equal rectangular compartments of varying depth, a hallmark of early Greek hammered coinage produced by a punch die. The incuse impression is irregular but deeply struck, consistent with archaic minting technique. No inscription or additional device is present within the compartments.

附加信息	Among the earliest struck coins in human history, Ionian hektes of this period predate any standardized issuing authority — attribution remains contested between Miletus, Ephesus, and a handful of other Lydian-coastal workshops. The electrum itself was not an artificial alloy; it was harvested directly from the Pactolus River, whose natural gold-silver composition varied enough that no two hektes carry identical fineness.
