Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of Kore Soteira (Persephone the Saviour) facing right, her hair adorned with a corn wreath and wearing a necklace. The bust is rendered in the local Provincial Greek style, with flowing drapery visible at the shoulder. The encircling Greek legend reads ΚοΡΗ ϹΩΤΕΙΡΑ ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ, identifying the deity as the patron goddess of Cyzicus. The corn wreath is a characteristic attribute of Kore in her chthonic and civic role as protectress of the city.

Beschrijving keerzijde Emperor Marcus Aurelius, bearded, standing facing with head turned to the right, clad in military dress including cuirass and paludamentum, holding a spear in his left hand and a sword at his side. To his right, Nike stands facing left, extending a wreath to crown the emperor while holding a palm branch in her left hand. The composition presents the emperor in a triumphal context, emphasising his military virtues and divine favour. The Greek legend ΚΥΖΙΚΗΝΩΝ ΝΕΟΚΟΡΩΝ in the field identifies Cyzicus as a neokorate city, a prestigious civic and religious honour conferring the right to maintain an imperial cult temple.
