| 裏面の説明 | Plain incuse square punch of irregular rectangular form, deeply impressed into the flan by the hammering technique typical of early Achaemenid silver coinage. The incuse displays a rough, striated surface with no figurative design or legend, divided by a raised central bar into two unequal compartments, consistent with the mill-sail or oblong incuse punch characteristic of early siglos types. The broad, raised rim surrounding the incuse reflects the hand-struck nature of the issue. |

The siglos was the Achaemenid silver unit within a bimetallic system paired against the gold daric, with the exchange rate fixed at 20 sigloi to one daric. Darius I standardized this coinage following his administrative reforms of the late 6th century BC, part of a broader overhaul that also reorganized the empire into satrapies with fixed tribute obligations — tribute that was itself often rendered in these coins.
Dies were hand-cut and punched individually, producing the characteristic irregular flans and incuse reverse punch marks that distinguish early Achaemenid silver from later, more mechanically consistent issues.
