| 正面描述 | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in the robust Hellenistic style characteristic of late Cretan coinage. The deity's features are strongly modelled, with curling hair and beard visible beneath the laurel wreath. The portrait occupies the majority of the flan, with no surrounding legend. The strike is irregular, reflecting the hand-hammered production technique typical of the period. |

| 背面描述 | Eagle standing right with wings spread open, depicted in a bold, stylised rendering consistent with Knossian bronze coinage of the late Hellenistic period. The bird's head is turned slightly, conveying an alert posture. The Greek magistrate's name ΘΑΡΣΙΔΙΚΑΣ (Tharsydikas) is inscribed in the field around the eagle, distributed across the right and lower portions of the reverse. The overall composition reflects the standard civic coinage iconography of Knossos, where the eagle serves as an attribute of Zeus. |

Cnossus in this period was operating under Roman provincial oversight following Quintus Caecilius Metellus's brutal reduction of Crete in 67 BC, after which the island became part of the joint province of Creta et Cyrenaica. The magistrate name ΘΑΡΣΙΔΙΚΑΣ — Tharsidikas — appears across several bronze issues of this decade, suggesting he held office long enough to oversee multiple emission runs, though nothing further of him survives in the literary record.
The Svoronos Cretan series places this type among the last autonomous-style civic bronzes before such local magistrate coinage effectively ceased.
