Beschrijving keerzijde Quadripartite incuse square divided by a raised cross into four recessed triangular compartments, each showing the characteristic hammer-struck depression of early Greek coinage technique. The incuse is deeply impressed and irregular in outline, reflecting the primitive hand-struck method of production. No legend or additional design elements are present. This simple reverse type is typical of early Pontic Greek issues of the late archaic period.

Aanvullende informatie

Pantikapaion — modern Kerch, on the Crimean side of the Cimmerian Bosphorus — was among the earliest Greek colonies to strike silver in the northern Black Sea region, doing so while still under the cultural and likely commercial orbit of Miletos. The city's early coinage, including this issue, predates its rise under the Spartokid dynasty by several decades, placing it in a period when the colony was competing directly with other Pontic emporia for grain trade revenue flowing back toward the Aegean.

The "cf." qualifiers across all three references suggest this specific die pairing has not been conclusively matched to a catalogued specimen.
