Reverse description A war galley (trireme) proceeding to the right, depicted with oars extending beneath the hull, a helmsman at the stern, and rowers visible amidships, rendered in the schematic style characteristic of Mysianic civic bronzes. The vessel's prow is prominent at left, and the oar-bank is rendered by a series of strokes below the waterline. The reverse legend in two lines, partially arching above and inscribed below the galley, references Cyzicus's prestigious status as a neocorate city, reflecting the city's pride in its imperial cult honors.
