| Beschrijving voorzijde | Conjoined foreparts of a winged lion and Pegasos, their bodies inverted relative to one another and joined at the truncation, rendered in archaic relief. The two fantastical creatures face in opposite directions, forming a striking heraldic composition characteristic of early Thraco-Macedonian coinage. The surfaces show typical archaic die-cutting with bold, deeply cut contours. No legend or inscription appears in the field. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Quadripartite incuse square divided by raised ridges into four equal recessed compartments, a standard reverse type of early Greek hammered coinage produced by a square punch. The four sunken panels show irregular surface texture consistent with archaic striking technique. The incuse square fills nearly the entire reverse field. No inscription or symbol is present within the compartments. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Thraco-Macedonian region in the late Archaic period was home to a dense cluster of small cities, tribal mints, and short-lived issuing authorities, many of which remain unattributed despite over a century of scholarship. Tzamalis's classification system has brought order to the grouping, but attribution of individual issues to specific cities remains contested — "uncertain" here is not numismatic laziness but an honest reflection of the evidence.
The weight standard aligns with the so-called Thraco-Macedonian reduced stater norm, distinct from the heavier Aeginetan and Euboic standards dominant elsewhere in the Greek world at this date.
