| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dionysus, the god of wine, is depicted seated to the left upon a high-backed throne, his body partially draped. He extends one hand downward to feed or gesture toward a panther crouching before him at lower left, a standard Dionysiac attribute symbolizing divine power over wild nature. His opposite arm rests upon the throne back. A tree is visible to the right of the composition, adding a naturalistic element to the divine scene. The ethnic legend of the Cyzicenes appears in the field to the left, with the distinctive locally produced Ζ letter form shaped as エ, within a dotted border. |

Cyzicus was among the most prolific civic minters in the Conventus of Asia, and its bronze issues under Marcus Aurelius span a wide typological range tied closely to the co-reign with Lucius Verus — making precise attribution within the 161–169 window genuinely difficult without accompanying reverse types. The epsilon-like Ζ in the ethnic ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ is a regional ligature convention well-documented across Mysia and not unique to this issue, but its presence here confirms a specific die workshop rather than a later restrike.
