| Reverse description | The infant Dionysus is depicted seated facing on a rounded object, identified as either a cista mystica or a globe, set within a crescent. Three stars are arranged in the field on each side of the divine infant, evoking a celestial or mystical atmosphere appropriate to the Dionysiac cult prominent at Magnesia ad Maeandrum. The reverse legend, disposed around the field, records the name and title of the local grammateus Praktikos under whose civic authority the coin was issued. |
