| Reverse description | Irregular quadripartite incuse punch, divided into four recessed compartments of unequal size by raised ridges meeting near the centre, characteristic of the mill-sail or quadripartum incusum type employed on early Greek electrum fractions. The incuse field shows a striated surface texture resulting from the hammered striking technique. No legend or additional device is present; the functional punch served primarily to displace metal and authenticate the coin's electrum content. |
