| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing figure of Homonoia (Concordia) turned to the left, wearing a kalathos (modius) on her head and draped in a long chiton and himation. She extends her right hand forward holding a patera for libation, while her left arm cradles a cornucopia, symbol of abundance and civic harmony. The Greek legend of the neokorate city of Cyzicus encircles the figure within a plain border. |

Cyzicus held the title of neokoros — warden of the imperial cult — and this coin announces that status explicitly in its legend. The city earned its first neokorate under Hadrian, tied to the cult of Zeus, and parlayed that religious prestige into consistent imperial favor through the Antonine period. Under Commodus, who actively encouraged divine associations with himself, cities like Cyzicus found particular incentive to advertise their cult responsibilities on bronze civic issues.
