| Beschrijving keerzijde | A single deep incuse square punch dominates the reverse, divided internally by intersecting diagonal ridges creating a rough quadripartite pattern with textured surfaces within each section. This characteristic mill-sail or windmill incuse type is typical of early Ionian electrum fractions struck in the late seventh to early sixth century BC, serving as a countermark confirming the metal content and weight of the flan. The punch is sharply impressed into the flat reverse surface with no legend or additional device. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The myshemihekte — one-sixth of a hekte, itself already a fractional denomination — places this piece at the extreme lower end of early Lydian-influenced electrum coinage, where the monetary system was still finding its footing in the decades before Croesus standardized the bimetallic gold-silver currency of Lydia proper. The issuing city remains unresolved; the Ionian coastal mints of this period were numerous, competitive, and not yet in the habit of identifying themselves on the flan.
Traité I#111 groups it among the uncertain issues precisely because die-linkage studies have so far failed to anchor it to a known civic series.
