Beschrijving voorzijde Boldly struck within a raised square border, the obverse presents a highly stylized animal figure — most likely a lion or griffin — rendered in archaic relief characteristic of early Ionian electrum coinage. The creature is depicted in a crouching or seated posture, with prominent musculature suggested by deeply hammered contours. The surface within the square is strongly convex and richly detailed despite the primitive die-cutting technique. The surrounding field, outside the square border, is plain and irregular, consistent with hand-struck planchets of the early sixth century BC. No legend or inscription is present, as is typical of the earliest coinage from the Ionian littoral.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a single large incuse square punch, deeply impressed into the fabric of the coin as a result of the hammering process typical of the earliest Greek electrum coinage. The incuse is divided by intersecting diagonal ridges forming a quadripartite pattern, a hallmark of archaic Lydian and Ionian minting technique. The surface within the incuse compartments is flat to slightly granular, retaining the texture of the original planchet. No figural type, legend, or secondary device is present. The surrounding area outside the incuse square is markedly convex and irregular, reflecting the hand-struck nature of this primitive denomination.
