Reverse description The mythological galley Argo advances to the right, rendered with a row of oarsmen depicted as dots along the hull, a prominent curved prow, and a steering oar at the stern — a celebrated civic type alluding to the legendary Argonaut hero Jason, whose voyage was associated with the region of Magnesia. The encircling legend reads retrograde and anti-clockwise around the type. The design is a hallmark of Magnesian civic pride in their mythological heritage.
