| Obverse description | Head of a tunny fish rendered in archaic Greek style, facing right and occupying the majority of the flan. A second tunny fish, depicted in outline, is positioned vertically to the left of the primary device with its head oriented upward. The design is executed with bold, deeply cut lines characteristic of early Kyzikene electrum coinage. No legend or inscription appears in the field. The irregular flan edge is typical of early archaic hammered coinage from this mint. |
