| Obverse description | A sphinx rendered in archaic Greek style crouches in left profile, its right forepaw raised. Beneath the sphinx, a tunny fish is depicted in left profile, serving as the characteristic Kyzikene symbol and control mark. The relief is bold and well-defined, exhibiting the fine engraving characteristic of early Kyzikene electrum coinage. |
