| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bull standing left, head turned back to right, rendered in compact archaic style with well-defined musculature. The animal is depicted in profile occupying the central field, its tail raised and legs firmly planted. No legend or inscription is present in the field. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with hand-struck silver coinage of the fifth century BC. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Quadripartite incuse square divided by a raised cross into four recessed compartments, each containing a roughly granular or irregular sunken surface. The incuse punch is deeply impressed and nearly fills the entire reverse field. This type of reverse is characteristic of early Greek archaic coinage produced by the mill-sail or windmill incuse technique, commonly attributed to cities of Ionia, Thrace, or the northern Aegean region. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Without a confirmed issuing authority, attribution remains contested among specialists. Fractional silver of this denomination circulated widely across the Aegean during the fifth century, when even tiny denominations were struck in silver rather than base metal — a reflection of how deeply coinage had penetrated daily commercial life within a single century of its introduction to the Greek world.
