背面描述	A quadripartite incuse square dominates the reverse field, formed by four recessed rectangular compartments divided by raised diagonal ridges meeting at the centre, creating an alternating raised-and-sunken windmill-like pattern. This deeply impressed geometric punch is characteristic of early Greek electrum coinage struck by the anvil-punch technique. The surface of each compartment bears irregular granular texture from the hammering process. No legend or subsidiary devices are present.

附加信息	Kyzikos was the dominant source of electrum coinage in the Greek world during the fifth century BC, producing a vast series of staters and fractions that circulated far beyond the Propontis as a trusted trade currency. The city's electrum was alloyed to a consistent standard, which gave Kyzikenian issues a commercial reliability that most civic coinages lacked. The hemihekte — one-twelfth of a stater — served the smallest high-value transactions in that system. Von Fritze's corpus remains the authoritative reference, though the "cf." qualification here signals the type doesn't map cleanly onto a recorded die pairing.
