| Aversbeschreibung | A muscular nude male figure, identified as a hero or deity, depicted in dynamic kneeling-running pose (knielauf) facing right, straining forward with evident energy. The figure grasps a large tunny fish (the civic emblem of Kyzikos) with both hands, holding it horizontally before him. The composition is rendered in high relief with confident archaic Greek craftsmanship, characteristic of the Kyzikene electrum series. The field is plain, with no legend or inscription, consistent with the uninscribed tradition of this mint. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Kyzikos dominated the electrum coinage market of the fifth and fourth centuries BC to a degree no other city matched — its hektes circulated as a de facto international trade currency across the Black Sea, Aegean, and as far as Egypt. The city's electrum supply came from alluvial sources in the region, and the consistently high gold content of Kyzikene issues gave them a reliability that made them acceptable far outside Mysian territory.
The series runs to well over two hundred distinct types, each obverse design apparently unique to a specific issue rather than repeated across years — a production convention that makes precise dating of individual pieces nearly impossible within the century-long span of the series.
