| Aversbeschreibung | Wheel or star pattern composed of eight radiating spokes or elongated leaf-shaped divisions emanating from a central hub, all contained within a plain raised circular border. The design is deeply incuse in the recessed sections between the spokes, creating a pronounced relief effect characteristic of early archaic Ionian coinage. The geometric motif, sometimes interpreted as a solar or stellar symbol, fills the flan entirely. No inscription or legend is present. The style is consistent with the primitive artistic conventions of late 7th-century BC electrum coinage from the Ionian region. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Incuse reverse bearing a rectangular punch divided by a central vertical bar and two horizontal bars into a grid of compartments, creating a pattern of six rectangular cells. Two of the lower central compartments each contain a raised pellet or boss. The raised grid design sits within a broad, slightly convex flan with a smooth surrounding margin. No legend or inscription is present. This type of divided incuse square is a hallmark of early archaic Greek coinage, serving as the anvil die mark from the striking process. |

The attribution of early Ionian hektes remains one of the genuinely unresolved problems in archaic Greek numismatics. This piece falls within the contested earliest phase of coinage itself — the late 7th century window during which electrum issues were produced by a cluster of Lydian and Ionian centers whose output is nearly impossible to assign with confidence. The natural electrum used in these early strikes varied in gold-to-silver ratio depending on the river source, which means composition alone cannot confirm origin.
SNG Kayhan 698 places it within a loose Ionian grouping by elimination as much as by positive evidence.
