Reverse description The nude, radiate-headed figure of Helios, the solar deity, stands upright in a galloping biga drawn by two horses racing to the right. The charioteer extends his arms forward holding the reins, the dynamic composition conveying speed and divine energy. The Greek legend of the neokorate city of Cyzicus is distributed around the coin's border, with the characteristic reversed Ζ noted in the lettering. The chariot wheel is visible at lower left, rendered with crisp detail despite the irregular flan.
