Reverse description A male figure, likely representing a mythological or cultic scene, strides to the right while leading a kneeling zebu bull by a leash or rope toward the entrance of a cave or grotto. The composition alludes to a local religious or mythological tradition of Magnesia ad Maeandrum, possibly connected to the founding myth of the city. The figures are rendered in low relief typical of Severan-era provincial bronze coinage. The reverse legend, distributed around the field, names the civic magistrate responsible for the issue.
