| Reverse description | A quadripartite incuse square divided into four equal rectangular compartments by two perpendicular lines, each compartment filled with a granulated or stippled texture. The incuse is deeply struck and covers virtually the entire reverse flan, a hallmark of early Thraco-Macedonian coinage technique. The irregular flan edge is characteristic of hand-struck hammered coinage of the archaic and early classical period. No legend or additional devices are present. |
