| Beschrijving keerzijde | Head of a roaring lion facing left, depicted within a recessed incuse square, a hallmark of early Lesbian electrum and silver coinage conventions adapted to the smaller silver denomination. The lion's mane is rendered with stylized radiating lines, the mouth is open revealing teeth and tongue, and the eye is boldly punched. The incuse square has well-defined borders. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mytilene's silver fractions from this period occupied an awkward monetary niche — too small for major commercial transactions, yet too carefully struck to be purely incidental. The city's monetary output was dominated by its celebrated electrum hektes, leaving the silver denominations as secondary instruments, likely serving local retail exchange or religious dedication rather than interstate trade.
