| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, diademed bust of the youthful hero Kyzikos facing right, with finely rendered curling hair and a diadem across the forehead. The portrait is executed in the Hellenistic tradition, presenting an idealized, youthful male effigy with a bare neck and softly modelled facial features. The legend ΚΥΖΙΚΟϹ appears in the field, identifying the eponymous founder-hero of the city. The flan is slightly irregular, consistent with provincial hammered coinage of the Antonine period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two lighted torches set vertically in the field, each entwined by a serpent rising from the base, their flames visible at the top — a device closely associated with the mysteries and sacred rites of Kyzikos. The composition is centrally arranged within a dotted border, with the circular legend divided around the periphery. This reverse type reflects the city's neokorate status and its prominent role in the imperial cult during the reign of Commodus. The legend ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ ΝΕΟΚΟΡΩΝ distributed around the field identifies the issuing authority and proclaims the city's honorific title as temple-warden. |
