| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and ivy-wreathed head of Dionysos facing left, rendered in low relief with coarse die work characteristic of Cycladic bronze coinage. The wreath is composed of ivy leaves encircling the deity's hair, which falls in loose locks. The facial features, though worn, retain definition around the brow and cheek. The field is plain with no surrounding legend. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A kantharos, the two-handled wine cup sacred to Dionysos, depicted in full face with pronounced handles curving outward from a footed base, centrally placed in the field. The vessel is rendered schematically in the typical Hellenistic Aegean bronze style. Small pellets or decorative elements flank the kantharos in the field. No legend is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Syros, a small Cycladic island with no significant mint history to rival its neighbors, produced bronze coinage of this type sporadically across the Hellenistic period. The island's commercial output was modest — it sat in the shadow of Delos, which dominated Aegean trade after Rome declared it a free port in 166 BC and effectively eclipsed smaller island economies.
