Beschrijving voorzijde A nude male rider, rendered in fine archaic relief, is depicted seated astride a prancing horse moving to the left, with the horse shown in dynamic mid-stride posture with all four legs extended. The rider leans slightly forward, gripping the horse's mane, conveying a sense of controlled motion. In the lower field beneath the horse, a tunny fish (the civic badge of Kyzikos) is depicted in left-facing profile, a recurrent type-marker on Kyzikene electrum coinage. The overall design is executed in confident, high-relief archaic Greek style, with the irregular flan characteristic of hammered electrum staters from this mint.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a quadripartite incuse square of the mill-sail or windmill type, divided into four rectangular compartments alternately raised and sunken, creating a distinctive recessed geometric pattern typical of early Greek electrum coinage. The incuse is deeply struck and slightly off-centre on the irregular flan, with a rough, granular surface texture within the recessed sections. No legend or subsidiary devices are present. This standard incuse reverse is characteristic of Kyzikene staters throughout their production from the late archaic through the early Hellenistic period.
