Ionia, c. 625 - 600 B.C.
This coin appears to have struck in a manner similar to medieval bracteates - using a single punch with the flan placed on a leather covered block, thus the punch design was transferred to the obverse. This may have been one of the earliest coins, produced using what was an experimental production method.SH19037. Electrum 1/48 stater, cf. SNG Kayhan 703 (1/24th); BMC Ionia p. 5, 21, VF, uncertain Ionian mint, weight 0.272g, maximum diameter 5.5mm, c. 625 - 600 B.C.; obverse raised cross-like pattern; reverse rough incuse square; ex Walter Davis Collection; scarce; SOLD
