| Beschrijving keerzijde | Isis depicted standing to the left, clad in a long draped garment with characteristic fringed mantle knotted at the breast, her head surmounted by a crown. She holds a sistrum raised in her right hand and a situla (ritual bucket) in her lowered left hand, emblems of her Egyptian cult. The standing figure is rendered in the typical provincial plastic style, with the ethnic legend ΜΑΓΝΗΤΩΝ disposed around the field within a dotted border, identifying the issuing city of Magnesia on the Maeander. |

Magnesia ad Maeandrum's civic bronze coinage under Maximinus Thrax reflects the awkward position of Greek provincial cities during his reign — a soldier-emperor who never visited the eastern provinces and whose legitimacy was contested almost from the start. The city had been minting under Roman oversight within the Milesian conventus for generations, but issues attributable specifically to the 235–238 window are relatively scarce, likely reflecting disrupted civic finances during a period of sustained military campaigning on the Rhine and Danube frontiers that drained imperial attention and resources eastward.
