| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare, youthful head of the eponymous hero Kyzikos facing right, wearing a diadem; the portrait is rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with fine facial features typical of civic bronze coinage of Mysia. The Greek legend ΚΥΖΙΚΟϹ appears in the field, identifying the depicted hero who served as the mythological founder of the city. The flan shows slight irregularity characteristic of hand-struck provincial bronze issues of the Roman Imperial period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cyzicus was one of the most productive civic mints in Mysia during the Antonine period, yet its output under Commodus is comparatively sparse, and retrograde legend errors of this type — ΝΩΝ reversed within ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ — point to a die engraver working carelessly or from an unfamiliar template. Such blunders were not corrected mid-series; the die ran until it cracked or was pulled.
