| Obverse description | A ram standing to the left in profile, rendered in fine relief with carefully detailed fleece indicated by a scale-like pattern. The animal is depicted in a naturalistic archaic Greek style, with its head turned slightly forward. Beneath the ram, serving as a ground line, a tunny fish faces left, a hallmark device of the Kyzikene electrum series. The field is plain and unlettered, consistent with early fifth century BC coinage of Kyzikos. |
