Reverse description Asclepius, the god of medicine, stands facing in the centre of the field, depicted frontally in a draped himation covering the lower body, his weight resting on a serpent-entwined staff (the kerykeion of Asclepius) held in his right hand. The figure is rendered in a classical Hellenistic tradition common to the civic coinage of Asia Minor. A two-line Greek inscription reading the civic legend of Cyzicus as neokoros surrounds the type along the periphery, with the notable epigraphic peculiarity that the letter Ζ is rendered in a form resembling the Japanese katakana character エ.
