| Reverse description | A bull strides vigorously to the right, rendered in naturalistic style with well-defined musculature, occupying the central field of the coin. The reverse legend is disposed in two lines around and below the bull, reading ΚΙΑΝΩΝ ΑΔΡΙΑΝΩΝ in Greek characters, identifying the issuing city of Cius under its Hadrianic title. The type is characteristic of Bithynian civic bronze coinage of the imperial period, where the bull frequently served as a civic emblem. |
