Beschrijving keerzijde	Athena's owl (Athene noctua) standing left on a plain ground line, head turned to face the viewer in the canonical three-quarter pose derived from Athenian prototypes. The bird is depicted with naturalistic detail, its wings folded and feathers indicated by engraved lines. The ethnic inscription ΜΙΛΗΤΟ is divided across the field, with letters appearing to the left and right of the owl, identifying the issuing city of Miletopolis.

Aanvullende informatie	Miletopolis, a minor Mysian city on the Macestus River, struck bronze civic coinage throughout the Hellenistic period largely to serve local market exchange — the broader economy of the region running on Pergamene and later Roman silver. The city's output is sparsely documented, and no ancient source records a significant monetary reform or political event tied directly to this bronze series. CN type#19820 is known from a small die study pool, making die links between surviving specimens genuinely useful to researchers.
