| Reverse description | A galley (the mythological ship Argo) depicted sailing left, with five rowers visible at the oars and a prominent mast with a fighting tower or deck structure rising above the hull. The vessel is rendered in the standard provincial style for Magnesian coinage, evoking the city's legendary connection to the Argonauts. The Greek ethnic legend ΑΡΓΩ ΜΑΓΝΗΤΩΝ surrounds the type, with the secondary mark Β appearing in the field, likely denoting a denomination or series designation. The overall composition fills the flan, with the hull of the ship occupying the lower register. |
