| 表面の説明 | A cuttlefish rendered in low relief in archaic Greek style, depicted facing with its mantle filling the field. The body of the cephalopod is shown with characteristic ribbed striations along the mantle, with tentacles indicated at the lower portion and a prominent eye in the upper central field. The design is executed with the bold simplicity typical of early Cycladic coinage, occupying the full flan on this irregularly shaped hammered flan. |

| 裏面の説明 | Incuse square divided into eight triangular segments by diagonal and orthogonal grooves radiating from a central point, forming the so-called 'Union Jack' pattern characteristic of early Archaic Greek coinage. The deep incuse impression, created by the hammer punch, produces alternating raised and recessed triangular compartments. This type of reverse is typical of the earliest period of Greek silver coinage from the Cycladic islands, serving as the anvil mark of the moneyer. |

Koressia was one of four ancient poleis on the island of Keos, each striking its own coinage despite the island's modest size. The city sat on the western coast and maintained enough commercial independence to produce silver at stater weight during the late Archaic period — a relatively brief window before Kean civic identity consolidated under the dominant polis of Ioulis.
HGC 6, 569 is among the scarcer Archaic Aegean island issues, with very few specimens recorded in major collections.
