| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stellate or wheel pattern of Milesian type set within a square incuse punch. The design consists of four pairs of lunate or crescent-shaped elements radiating symmetrically from a central raised globule, separated by short linear bars at the cardinal points, creating a bold eight-armed star-like composition. The entire device is sunk within a square incuse field, a hallmark of early Greek coinage technique. The execution is crisp and deeply struck, consistent with Carian satrapal mint practice of the early fourth century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hecatomnus was the first of the Hekatomnid dynasty — technically an Achaemenid-appointed satrap of Caria, but in practice an autonomous ruler who laid the groundwork for his son Mausolus to build the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus. He governed from Mylasa, not the later dynastic capital, and his coinage reflects a period when Carian rulers were quietly asserting independence through currency while remaining nominally loyal to Persia. The tetrobol denomination placed these firmly in Greek commercial circulation rather than Persian administrative use.
