Reverse description Incuse square with a geometric or symbolic design impressed into the flan, typical of early Lycian dynastic coinage of the fifth century BC. The incuse depression, characteristic of the hammered technique employed at this period, features a rough or patterned surface. No legible inscription is present on the reverse, consistent with the coinage of the Lycian dynast Kuprilli prior to the adoption of Lycian-script legends.
