| Reverse description | The reverse displays a single large incuse square subdivided into two rectangular compartments by a central ridge, forming a divided incuse punch typical of early archaic Greek coinage from Ionia. The surface within the incuse is rough and granular, consistent with the hammered technique employed at this period. No inscription or secondary device is present. The incuse pattern served primarily as a practical mint mark rather than a decorative motif. |
