Hemihekte - Phanes

Beschrijving voorzijde	Forepart of a stag advancing to right, with head reverted to left, rendered in bold archaic relief characteristic of early Lydian-Ionian electrum coinage. The musculature and form of the animal are stylized yet naturalistic, with the haunches and forelegs rendered in summary but expressive detail. The field is plain and unscribed, consistent with the earliest issues of the Phanes series predating the introduction of legends on Greek coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde	Deep, roughly quadripartite incuse square impressed into the flan, with an irregular, striated surface divided into unequal compartments by raised ridges. The incuse punch mark is characteristic of early archaic electrum coinage from western Asia Minor, where a single or multiple punches were applied to secure the flan during striking. The interior surface displays pronounced die-tool texturing with no figurative or epigraphic elements.
