| Reverse description | A lighted torch set vertically at the centre of the field, around which a serpent is coiled in ascending spirals, its head raised toward the flame at the top. The type is associated with civic religious symbolism and may reference the cult of a local deity. The Greek legend naming the Cyzicene neocorate is distributed around the border within a dotted circle. |
