| Beschrijving keerzijde | Quadripartite incuse square divided into four irregular rectangular compartments by raised ridges meeting near the centre, with alternating raised and recessed sections creating a windmill-like pattern within the square. The incuse is deeply struck and occupies the majority of the reverse field, consistent with early Greek hammered coinage technique. The surface within the compartments is rough and uneven, typical of archaic silver issues from the northern Aegean region. No inscription or additional device is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Neapolis (modern Kavala) was a Thasian colony functioning primarily as a trading port and transit point for silver coming out of the Pangaion mines inland. These staters circulated in a region where Thracian, Macedonian, and Greek commercial interests collided constantly, and the city's coinage served that cross-cultural exchange rather than any single political authority. The chronological window — roughly the two decades bracketing Xerxes' invasion of 480 BC — places these issues in active production just as Persian forces marched directly through the northern Aegean coast road that passed Neapolis itself.
