Cyzicus, a wealthy city in ancient Mysia, produced silver tetradrachms that became widely circulated throughout the Hellenistic world due to the city’s strategic position on major trade routes. These coins typically featured Athena or other deities and were known for their consistent weight and purity, making them trusted instruments of international commerce. Today, the Mysia Cyzicus AR Tetradrachm Coin is available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Cyzicus was founded as a Greek colony on the southern shore of the Propontis (Sea of Marmara) and became one of the most prosperous cities of ancient Mysia. Its unique position on a peninsula connected to the mainland by bridges gave it exceptional defensive capabilities while maintaining access to lucrative sea trade. The city thrived under various rulers, from Persian satrapies to Hellenistic kingdoms and eventually Rome, always managing to preserve significant autonomy due to its economic importance and strategic location.
This Mysia Cyzicus AR Tetradrachm Coin comes with a Very Fine certification. The coin presents bright, untoned silver surfaces with moderate luster present on the highest relief points and a clean, satin background field. The 5/5 strike grade indicates high quality appearance for the centering, strength, and evenness of the design.
On the obverse of the Cyzicus AR Tetradrachm Silver Coin, you’ll find a bust of Persophone. This female deity was known as the Greek goddess of the underworld and was the daughter of Zeus and Demeter. The reverse features a lion head and a tunny fish. The 4th century BC represented a golden age for Cyzicene coinage, with the city producing silver tetradrachms of exceptional artistry following Athenian weight standards. These coins circulated widely during Alexander the Great’s campaigns and the subsequent Hellenistic period, serving as a stable currency amid the chaos of empire-building.
