背面描述	Laureate and bearded male head facing right, depicted within a shallow incuse square, a hallmark of early Greek hammered coinage. The wreath of laurel is rendered with careful detail despite the diminutive size of the flan, and the beard is shown with parallel striated lines in the archaic convention. The portrait is set without inscription within the incuse, consistent with the anonymous civic issues of Karia during this period.

附加信息	Euromus, a minor Karian city near Mylasa, issued coins at a time when fractional silver coinage served the granular demands of local market exchange — a tetartemorion being one quarter of an obol, itself one sixth of a drachm. At 0.21g, this is about as small as ancient hand-struck coinage gets without losing functional coherence entirely. The city later became more prominent under Macedonian and then Seleukid influence, but these early Karian issues predate that political absorption entirely.
