| Obverse description | Bare, youthful diademed head of the eponymous hero Kyzikos facing right, rendered in the local provincial style characteristic of Mysian civic coinage. The portrait displays idealized Hellenistic features befitting a heroic effigy. A serpent may be present beneath the bust in the lower field, though heavily worn. The obverse legend ΚΥΖΙΚΟϹ appears in Greek script around the portrait, identifying the civic hero. |
