| Beschrijving voorzijde | A nude male figure, likely a youth or athlete, shown in dynamic pose astride or wrestling with a lion, rendered in high relief in the characteristic Kyzikene artistic style. The muscular figure is depicted in left-facing profile, with vigorous, naturalistic modeling typical of late Archaic to early Classical Greek craftsmanship. The design fills the broadly circular flan, which bears the characteristic irregular, lumpy surface associated with Kyzikene electrum coinage. No legend or inscription appears in the field. The overall composition exhibits the bold, confident engraving characteristic of fifth-century BC Kyzikos mint production. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Quadripartite incuse square divided into four recessed compartments of alternating raised and sunken sections, forming the distinctive mill-sail or windmill pattern characteristic of early Kyzikene electrum staters. The incuse is deeply struck and sharply defined, with rough granular surfaces within the recessed areas. This reverse type is entirely uninscribed and legendless, consistent with archaic Greek coinage convention. The surrounding plain field merges into the irregular flan edge. The bold geometric incuse design served both as a technical anti-counterfeiting measure and as a hallmark of the Kyzikos mint. |
