| Reverse description | Laureate, bearded, and draped bust of Asclepius (attributed with uncertainty) facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style characteristic of Mysian civic coinage. The god's characteristic features — bearded visage and draped shoulder — are visible despite surface wear. The field is plain, and a beaded border encircles the design. The surrounding Greek legend references the local strategos Marcus Aurelius K(?) Aristeides and the neocorate status of the city of Cyzicus. |
