| Beschrijving keerzijde | Deep incuse square divided diagonally by raised ridges forming an X-shaped pattern, creating four sunken triangular compartments. The incuse is boldly cut and irregular in execution, consistent with the early hammered technique employed at Thraco-Macedonian mints circa 500 BC. The surface within the compartments is rough and unpolished, as is typical of the mill-sail or skew type incuse reverse of this coinage. |

Lete was a small settlement in ancient Mygdonia, the region of Macedon later reorganized under Philip II, and its coinage belongs to a cluster of early fifth-century Macedonian tribal issues that predate the kingdom's absorption of the area. The satyr-and-nymph type produced at Lete is among the most graphically forceful of all archaic Greek coinages, and the style has been closely studied in attempts to establish die links across neighboring mints including Neapolis and Akanthos. Production appears to have ceased abruptly — likely before 480 BC — possibly as a consequence of the Persian advance through the region under Xerxes.
