| Reverse description | A youthful male Triton, nude from the waist up with a fish-tailed lower body, depicted in dynamic leftward motion atop a globe set in the lower field, evoking dominion over the sea. The figure holds a large fish in his extended left hand and a steering rudder over his right shoulder, attributes emblematic of maritime power and civic identity. The ethnic legend ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ curves around the periphery of the field, identifying the issuing community. The composition is vigorously rendered in the local Mysian provincial style characteristic of Cyzicene coinage of the Antonine period. |
