| 裏面の説明 | Quadripartite incuse square divided into four equal recessed compartments by a raised cross, struck deeply into the flan in the standard archaic mill-sail or windmill pattern. The incuse impression is irregular in depth across its quarters, consistent with early hammered coinage technique. The field shows characteristic tool marks from the anvil die, with the surrounding area of the flan left plain. |

Kyzikos dominated electrum coinage in the ancient Greek world for roughly two centuries, and the city's hektes circulated far beyond Mysia — hoards have surfaced across the Black Sea littoral, the Aegean, and as far inland as Anatolia. The consistency of the city's electrum alloy was itself a commercial guarantee, one that made Kyzikene staters and their fractions acceptable in transactions where other regional issues were refused.
The H&L reference places this piece among the earliest attributable Kyzikene fractions, predating the city's most prolific output period.
