Stater

正面描述	Facing right bust of a maenad in fine Greek style, her elaborately dressed hair rendered in flowing wavy locks swept back from the forehead and secured with a wreath or band, falling in rich curling tresses behind the neck. A distinctive triple-pendant earring is visible below the ear. The portrait is rendered with considerable artistic sophistication, the facial features displaying the graceful idealism characteristic of late Classical Cretan coinage. The field is plain and the flan is irregular, as typical of hammered issues of this period.

背面描述	Standing figure of the eponymous hero Kydon facing left, depicted in the act of stringing or bending a bow, his body shown in a dynamic contrapposto pose. The inscription KYΔΩΝ appears to the right of the figure in the field, identifying the hero. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border set within a shallow circular incuse square, a format characteristic of Cretan mint issues of the late Classical and early Hellenistic periods. The reverse demonstrates the Cretan tradition of heroic mythological imagery associated with the city's legendary founder.
