| Obverse description | Draped bust of Kore Soteira facing right, her head crowned with a wreath of corn ears in the Demeter tradition, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Mysian civic coinage. A serpent is depicted below the bust, serving as an attribute of the chthonic and soteric aspects of the goddess. The legend encircles the bust in Greek majuscules, with the epithet spelled in its variant form. The portrait is executed in moderate relief characteristic of Cyzicene bronze issues of the third century. |
