| Reverse description | Quadripartite incuse square divided into four triangular compartments by two intersecting diagonal grooves, forming a windmill or pinwheel pattern characteristic of early electrum and silver coinage of Kyzikos. The incuse is deeply struck with alternating raised and recessed sections, consistent with archaic punch technique. The surface displays the typical granular texture of a hammered silver flan. No legend or additional device is present. |
