| Reverse description | Nude Zeus advancing to the right in a dynamic striding pose, his right arm raised and brandishing a thunderbolt while his extended left hand holds an eagle. The figure is rendered with attention to musculature in the classical tradition, set within a plain field enclosed by a beaded border. The civic legend ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ ΝΕΟΚΟΡ(ΩΝ) — identifying the Cyzicenes as holders of the prestigious neokorate title — runs around the periphery. This reverse type celebrates both the supreme deity of the Greek pantheon and the honorific religious status conferred upon the city. |
