Beschrijving keerzijde The eponymous hero Kyzikos depicted as a nude standing figure facing left, a chlamys draped over his left shoulder, holding a long spear in his right hand. The figure is rendered in a static, frontal stance characteristic of provincial civic hero types. The ethnic legend ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ is distributed around the field in Greek majuscules, identifying the issuing city. A dotted border runs along the coin's periphery.

Aanvullende informatie

Cyzicus was one of the most important cities of the Mysian coast, and its civic bronze coinage under the Antonines reflects the city's sustained prosperity and the administrative weight it carried as the seat of its conventus — the regional assize district where Roman judicial authority was exercised over a wide catchment of smaller communities. Issues of this type were produced locally and circulated at the municipal level, never intended for wider imperial use.

The dating to 169–175 places this coin squarely within the co-reign of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus, and then Marcus alone following Verus's death in 169.
