| 表面の説明 | Forepart of a horse advancing to left in high relief, rendered in the archaic Greek style with stylized flowing mane indicated by incised parallel lines. The horse's muscular chest and raised forelegs are prominently depicted, conveying vitality and movement. The eye of the animal is rendered as a raised pellet. The flan is broad and irregular, characteristic of early Aeolian coinage of the late archaic period. |

| 裏面の説明 | Two concentric incuse squares, the larger outer square decorated with alternating palmettes and floral motifs in relief within its recessed compartments, and the smaller inner square divided by a diagonal cross pattern forming four triangular fields. The overall composition is deeply punched, characteristic of the incuse technique employed by early Greek mints of Aeolis. The design reflects the transitional archaic style preceding the introduction of figured reverse types. |

Kyme was among the earliest Greek colonies in Italy, founded by Euboean settlers around 750 BC, and by the early fifth century it had become the dominant power on the Campanian coast. This stater belongs to a formative period of Cumaean silver coinage, before the city's pivotal naval victories against the Etruscans — particularly the battle of 474 BC when a Cumaean-Syracusan fleet broke Etruscan control of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The mussel shell reverse type characteristic of early Kymean issues is a recognized chronological marker placing production firmly in the archaic phase of the mint.
