| Reverse description | A broad-necked amphora or hydria with two lateral handles rendered in relief at the centre of the field, a type closely associated with the sacred rites and civic identity of Cyzicus. The vessel sits above a dotted border or ground line, and the ethnic legend ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ (with the zeta possibly formed as a reversed Ζ) runs around the periphery of the field, partially visible to the right. The overall composition is enclosed within a circular border. |
