| Reverse description | The infant Miletus, mythical founder-hero of Miletus, reclines facing left beneath a she-wolf (bitch) standing to the right, suckling the child in a scene evoking the city's legendary origins. The composition is set within a plain circular field, with the civic legend distributed around the periphery. The type closely parallels the Lupa Romana motif and underscores Cydonia's cultural connections to foundation mythology. The legend ΚΥΔΩΝΙΑΤΑΝ frames the design, asserting the civic identity of the issuing community. |
