Stater

正面描述	Forepart of a tunny fish to the left in high relief, rendered in a bold archaic style characteristic of Kyzikene coinage. The fish displays carefully detailed scales along its body and a prominent crescent-shaped fin beneath the head. The design occupies the full flan, with the creature's musculature conveying a strong sense of naturalistic vigor. No inscription or legend is present, consistent with the anepigraphic tradition of early Kyzikene electrum issues. The tunny fish served as the civic emblem of Kyzikos and appears as a recurrent type identifier on this series.

背面描述	Deep quadripartite incuse square divided into four triangular compartments by raised diagonal ridges, alternately raised and recessed, forming the characteristic 'windmill' pattern associated with early Greek coinage technique. The incuse is sharply struck and irregular in outline, reflecting the hand-hammered production method. The surface within the compartments is rough and uneven, typical of the archaic period. No legend or secondary device is present. This reverse type is standard for Kyzikene electrum staters of the late archaic period.
