| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing or frontal animal head, tentatively identified as a scorpion or crayfish, rendered in a bold, archaic style characteristic of early Anatolian or East Greek electrum coinage. The design displays strongly projecting relief with schematic, angular detailing of the creature's appendages radiating outward across the field. The flan is small, thick, and irregularly shaped, consistent with the primitive striking techniques of the late 7th to early 6th century BC. No legend or inscription is present. The overall execution reflects the experimental artistic vocabulary of the earliest Greek coinage tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The hekte — one-sixth of a stater — was already an established denomination when these fractional issues were struck, but the "myshemihekte" represents a further halving: one-twelfth of a stater, among the smallest monetary units produced in the archaic Aegean world. The issuing authority remains unresolved; the western Anatolian coast and the adjacent islands generated dozens of electrum series in this period, many of which resist firm attribution because civic coinage had not yet standardized the identifying marks that later made attribution routine.
