| Reverse description | Two tall lighted torches stand upright in the field, each entwined by a serpent whose body coils upward along the shaft; between the torches, at the base, a lighted altar with flames rising from its top is depicted in the centre of the composition. The design alludes to the mystery cult and neokorate status of Cyzicus. The circular Greek legend ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ ΝΕΟΚΟΡΩΝ surrounds the device, distributed along the periphery of the flan. |
