| Beschrijving voorzijde | Forepart of a roaring lion facing right, rendered in bold archaic relief, occupying the full field of the flan. The mane is depicted with deeply engraved, stylized striations arranged in a tiered, fan-like pattern across the shoulder and chest. The beast's open mouth reveals prominent teeth and a curved tongue, while the eye is rendered as a round, protruding boss. A characteristic globule or solar symbol appears above the lion's forehead, a hallmark of Lydian royal coinage. The design is executed with vigorous plasticity characteristic of the finest Sardian workshop production of the late 7th to mid-6th century BC. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two oblong incuse punches of unequal size impressed side by side into the reverse field, creating a characteristic rectangular double-punch design. The larger punch occupies the left portion and the smaller the right, both exhibiting irregular but deliberately placed square or rectangular depressions produced by the anvil die. The surfaces within the punches are rough and striated from the hammering process. No figurative imagery or inscription is present; the incuse pattern served as the authenticating countermark of the Sardian mint authority. This primitive reverse type is consistent with the earliest phase of true coinage production in the ancient world. |
