| Beschrijving voorzijde | A lyre depicted facing, rendered in archaic style occupying the central field of the flan. The instrument displays a rounded resonator at the base, two upright arms, and multiple strings extending vertically between the crossbar and the body. The design is bold and schematic, consistent with the miniature scale and archaic coinage conventions of fifth-century BC Asia Minor. No inscription or legend is present in the field. |

At 0.11 g, this is fractional coinage at its most extreme — a denomination so small that ancient merchants almost certainly handled it by count rather than by feel. These tiny silvers circulated widely across the Aegean economy to facilitate small retail transactions at a time when coined money was still relatively new technology. The issuing city remains unattributed with confidence, a common problem with fifth-century Ionian fractions where dozens of poleis struck near-identical small silver.
