| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, youthful draped bust of Commodus as Caesar, wearing the paludamentum, facing right and viewed from the rear. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features of Commodus during his tenure as co-emperor under Marcus Aurelius. The circumferential Greek legend surrounds the bust in the field. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat worn, consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cyzicus held the rare distinction of multiple neokorate titles — the honorific granted by Rome recognizing a city as official keeper of an imperial cult — and the boastful civic titulature inscribed on this coin reflects that status directly. The unusual Ζ rendered in a form resembling the Japanese katakana エ is not damage or engraver error; it is a documented regional letter variant found on Cyzicene bronzes of this period, likely a workshop convention rather than a scribal anomaly.
