| Reverse description | A quadripartite incuse square divided into four recessed compartments of roughly equal size, produced by a four-pronged punch applied to the blank during striking. The incuse is deeply impressed into the flan, with each quadrant exhibiting a slightly irregular, striated texture consistent with hammered production. No inscription, symbol, or additional design element is present within the incuse. This reverse type is standard for electrum coinage of Kyzikos throughout the Archaic and early Classical periods. |
