| Reverse description | Full-length figure of Demeter, the goddess of grain and harvest, advancing to the right in flowing robes, holding a lit torch in each outstretched hand. The deity is depicted in the classical Hellenistic tradition favored by the civic mint of Cyzicus, her drapery rendered with vertical folds. The reverse legend, divided by a line, records the name of the local strategos and the double neocorate status of the city, affirming Cyzicus's prestigious religious standing within the Roman province of Asia. |
