| Reverse description | Plain quadripartite incuse square divided into four equal triangular sections by diagonal lines meeting at the center, forming a characteristic mill-sail or windmill pattern. The deeply recessed incuse punch is of irregular square form with slightly raised ridges at the intersections, consistent with early archaic Greek hammered coinage technique. The field within each quadrant shows the rough texture of the punch used during striking. No legend or additional devices are present. |
