| Beschrijving keerzijde | An eagle standing left, rendered in profile with folded wings and alert posture, set within a shallow incuse square produced by the reverse die. The bird's head is turned slightly forward, and its taloned feet are clearly defined against the plain incuse field. The square incuse recess is characteristic of early Archaic Greek coinage technique. No inscription or additional devices are present. The eagle device is associated with Miletos and complements the lion type on the obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Miletos was among the wealthiest poleis in the Aegean world before the Ionian Revolt collapsed its power entirely. The city's destruction by the Persians in 494 BC — following the defeat at Lade — effectively ended this coinage. Whatever survived in circulation afterward did so under occupation.
At roughly a 96th of a stater, this denomination was the smallest practical subdivision in everyday Milesian exchange, likely used in market transactions where even a hemiobol was too large.
