Reverse description Within a square incuse punch bordered by a beaded dotted frame, an eagle's head facing left is depicted in low relief, with finely rendered feathering and a hooked beak. Above the eagle's head, a prominent floral volute or spiral ornament curls elegantly to the upper left, filling the field. The incuse square technique is characteristic of early Greek coinage of the late Archaic period, circa 490–480 BC. No inscription or legend is present.
