Beschrijving voorzijde Bearded head of Herakles in right profile, wearing the characteristic lion skin headdress with jaws framing the face, rendered in fine archaic Greek style with carefully articulated musculature and facial features. A tunny fish, the civic emblem of Kyzikos, is depicted in the lower field to the right, serving as a mint identifier. The design fills the flan with confident, fluid engraving typical of the Kyzikene electrum series. No legend or inscription is present, the imagery alone conveying both divine heroic patronage and civic identity.

Beschrijving keerzijde A bold quadripartite incuse square dominates the reverse, created by the punch of the lower die and divided into four recessed compartments by raised ridges meeting at a central point. Each of the four quadrants displays a rough, granular sunken surface resulting from the hammering technique. This standard incuse reverse type is characteristic of early Greek electrum coinage and served a functional purpose in securing the metal and authenticating the flan. The field surrounding the incuse square is plain and unmarked. No legend or additional devices are present.
