| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central type depicting a right hand (dextrarum iunctio or civic gesture) holding a wreath, flanked by two ears of grain and a vine branch, symbols of agricultural abundance and civic prosperity commonly employed on Lydian provincial bronzes. The composition is arranged within a circular field bordered by a dotted inner circle. The encircling Greek legend names the magistrate Theodoros and the issuing civic community. The overall die work is consistent with the municipal workshop output of Magnesia ad Sipylum under the Augustan principate. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Magnesia ad Sipylum, a city on the Hermus River in Lydia, held particular importance in the early imperial period as the site where Scipio Africanus died in self-imposed exile around 183 BC — a detail the city's civic coinage milieu quietly invoked through its broader claims to Roman affinity. The magistrate named in this issue, Theodoros, was one of several local officials granted the privilege of lending their name to civic bronze under Augustus, a practice that reinforced municipal loyalty to the new order without requiring direct imperial mandate.
The conventus of Smyrna governed civic coin production across the region, and Magnesia's output under Augustus is notably thin compared to neighboring mints.
